Born in Nagpur, Nishant Dange graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the Government of Chitrakala Mahavidyalay in 2004, earning top marks and a gold medal. He later received the Bombay Art Society Award in 2007.

Dange creates moody, atmospheric art using a mix of charcoal, watercolor, and acrylic.

To him, the butterfly symbolizes a woman's power to change and rebuild.
