Current Youtube Offering


Bari Kumar was born in 1966 in Nellore, India and currently lives in Los Angeles, CA. His work of art, Blind Faith was created in 2009 as a commission by the San Jose Museum of Art.

Of the piece he stated in an interview:

"The image has a reference to the virgin Mary from the western world, but with the addition of the bindi on her forehead, instantly becomes an Indian figure. The blindfold works again to draw the attention to the cloth as well as the aspect of being unseen."
