Manimanjari Sengupta (she/they) is an illustrator and visual artist from Kolkata, India. They are a current student in the MFA in Illustration and Visual Culture program at Washington University in St Louis. 
In her practice she explores questions of female desire and sexuality, identity and body image, and women’s participation in public space.  They draw from their own lived experience, to tell stories that challenge the narrative of shame and fear surrounding femme bodies. Their practice is influenced by their educational background in Sociology and Law, and their professional experience in journalism and development research.
They are endlessly fascinated by urban life, and visual reportage on cities through a feminist lens is a significant part of their practice.
