Dipali Gupta (b. 1977) is a multi-media artist whose practice explores societal constructs from the domain of the feminine. Influenced by Foucauldian biopolitics, religious habituations, socio-political constructs, and its psychosomatic effects, Dipali’s experimental works question the normative and strive to reclaim space and meaning. Her concepts usually defy myths of domestication, reproduction, spectatorship, self, and identity. Set amongst Deleuzian societies of control, her practice subverts notions of patriarchy, androcentricity and binarism. Her multi-disciplinary approach re-appropriate less significant genres by layering concepts with artistic and social canons. Her research interests include feminist theory, post humanism, the body and identity politics.

A graduate of LASALLE College of the Arts in Singapore and Goldsmith’s University in London, Gupta has accumulated accolades over the years including nominations for the Chan Davies Art Prize (2018, winner), Young Master’s Art Prize (2019), the Wells Art Contemporary Award (2020), the Sovereign Asian Art Prize (2022, finalist). Her work has been exhibited in Singapore, Hong Kong, and Kuala Lumpur, with expositions and symposiums in Portugal, London, Miami, Paris, and New Delhi. Outside of her art practice, she was the co-moderator of a reading group called Constructing the Body at Malaysia Design Archive, Kuala Lumpur, and a part-time lecturer in Cinema and Sociology at Multimedia University (MMU), Kuala Lumpur. 

After several years spent in Singapore and Malaysia, Gupta is currently based in her native Mumbai. In 2025, she was a fellow at the Virginia Centre for the Creative Arts in Virginia, United States.
