Remembering Hanif Kureshi, the artist credited with popularising street art in India
Briefly

"Kureshi sought to democratise art with his work and bring it out of white-cube spaces, widely credited as the person who popularised street art in India."
"Despite not having a family of artists, he spent time with local sign painters, which influenced his passion for street painting and led to his career in visual arts."
"St+art India was founded in 2014 with a mission to make art more accessible, resulting in notable projects like the murals in Delhi's Lodhi Colony."
"Under Kureshi's direction, the Lodhi Art District transformed with over 50 artists creating murals that captured the local community and showcased cultural stories."
