My Profile

SUPARNA GHOSH

A writer, painter and a former adjudicator, my words and visuals are collaged to create narratives and yarns, myths and mysteries. I have published three books of poetry and two musical CDs based on my poems. My works have appeared in numerous national and international literary journals. I have been featured in the award-winning 2022 anthology A River of Stars, Poets of the Vineyard, San Francisco; History of Contemporary Indian English Poetry; Poetcrit: Silver Jubilee Special on Post-1960 Indian English Poetry; Poetry and Poetics: Contemporary World Poets. In 2022, on the occasion of UNESCO World Poetry Day, my work was published in an anthology by Print Publications, India. A grand prize winning poem was choreographed and staged in California Palace of the Legion of Honor, San Francisco. Among other awards, including The Ontario Poetry Society contests, I was short-listed for the Montreal International Poetry Prize and published in their Global Poetry Anthology. I am one of the founding members of the Art Bar, the longest running poetry reading series in Canada. I was featured in Kala, a journal dedicated to the arts of South Asia. My pen and ink drawings were selected for provincial and national painting competitions by the Arts and Letters Club of Toronto. I have exhibited in Toronto, New York, San Francisco, Seoul, Mumbai and New Delhi.
