Artist Biography

Supermrin is an Indian artist whose sculptural practice combines foraged trees with a grass-derived bioplastic of her own invention. Drawing from biophilosophy, decolonial theory, architecture, material science, and speculative fiction, her research-driven work interrogates the capitalist and colonial logics embedded in the global lawn. Her long-term project, FIELD, was featured in Towards Another Architecture: New Visions for the 21st Century (Lund Humphries, 2024), a critical reappraisal of Le Corbusier’s legacy in the Global South amid escalating climate crises.

Supermrin’s work has been presented internationally at the Cincinnati Art Museum; MOCA Cleveland; the Contemporary Art Center, Cincinnati; the San Francisco Arts Commission Galleries; Untitled Art Fair (Special Projects), Miami; PS122 Gallery, New York; Château de Vaudijon, Switzerland; and Tactile Bosch, Wales. She is a recipient of the 2025 Anonymous Was A Woman Environmental Art Grant, the Individual Excellence Award for Sculpture from the Ohio Arts Council, and the Franklin Furnace Fund for Performance Art. She is the Area Head of Interdisciplinary Practice at the University of Cincinnati’s School of Art, an artist-in-residence at Silver Art Projects in New York City, and a research fellow at Genspace in Brooklyn.
