Dharmendra Prasad lives and works between Assam and Bihar, India. His work deals with how marginalized groups live with agrarian life in India, and the coming of plantation based capitalism in the contemporary. He moves through threshing floors, and barren groves, collects and works with mud, hay, straw, wood and fodder and whatever is left in these farms and fields. Prasad runs the artistic, community project Harvest School that gathers families, farmers, craftsmen, fishermen, urban youth, and non-human agencies to unlearn imperial attitudes; colonial, nationalistic and industrial practices. The pedagogy revolves around workshops, display, deep observations, actions and toil of the eco – rural contexts(wetlands, forests, agricultural fields, threshing floors and other harvest sites) to experience non-capital ways of living – planting seeds for better future.”
