Artist Profile: Nilam Pandey

1. The artist Nilam Pandey is a mother of three daughters and two sons. She married off her eldest daughter at an age of fourteen. The next daughter in line takes care of all the household works and the youngest daughter is too young to do any work. She wants her son to go to school and get education but since both Nilam and her husband are illiterate, their son lack guidance and hence they are not that successful at school. Nilam finds peace at the Institute, where she can leave behind all the family responsibilities and engage in painting beautiful works of creation.
