St+art India Foundation
[edit]St+art India Foundation was established in 2014 by Hanif Kureshi, along with Arjun Bahl, Giulia Ambrogi, Akshat Nauriyal, and Thanish Thomas. It is a non-profit organization[1] that was founded with the aim of using street art as a medium to engage communities, revitalize urban spaces, and foster cultural expression in public areas. Inspired by the idea of making art accessible outside traditional venues such as galleries and museums, the founders sought to bring artistic experiences directly into public spaces—particularly onto streets, walls, and buildings encountered in everyday life. It engages in creating murals, street art, and experimental public art installations in urban spaces, including slums, urban villages, bus stations, and metro stations.[2]
The foundation focuses on transforming overlooked and neglected urban areas into open-air galleries, using art as a tool to stimulate dialogue, social inclusion, and public engagement. Since its inception, St+art India has collaborated with various partners to create murals, installations, and public art interventions in cities including Delhi, Mumbai, Hyderabad, and Kolkata.[3]
