Niloofar Chaman is a Bangladeshi artist based in Chittagong, Bangladesh,[1] whose work focuses on themes of social injustice and discrimination against women.
[2] Niloofar Chaman's artistic style is characterized by bold forms and vivid colors, inspired by modelling found in Bengal folk art.
Her work is part of the Chittagong art tradition which uses experimental methods and seeks to contain a strong sense of narrative.
[2] In the 1980s, her work was described as "strongly distinctive", and were originally monochromatic before including the flat application of bright primary colours.
[5] Her known works include a series titled "Which Can Be Knotted", which was shown at the Fukuoka Asian Art Museum in 2002, representing both the wish to form strong bonds between people, as well as the suffocation created by strong relationships.
