Rohit Prasad is a doctoral scholar and UGC Senior Research Fellow in the department of English at Jadavpur University working on underground comics and their negotiations with gender. He also received an M.Phil. from Jadavpur University for his research on post-independence women cartoonists and their contribution to the visual political culture of the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. Thus far, Rohit has studied, presented, and published on the art and politics of visual communication by marginal groups. Much of his ruminations on existence, survival, and friendship(s) are motivated by real-life experiences and deeply coloured by feminist and intersectional queer politics. Art keeps him afloat.
