Museologist

I have developed and curated over ten museum galleries, including three Archaeology Galleries and a Bronze Gallery, each designed with thematic depth and educational value. My exhibition designs incorporate interactive features such as a dynamic dinosaur selfie zone to engage visitors of all ages. I have served as the supervisory authority for the Ananda Bhawan Museum in Cuttack and the Jaydev Museum in Kenduli, overseeing curation, conservation, and visitor education. I have organized national and international exhibitions on themes like Ratha Yatra and Gandhi Jayanti, giving Odisha’s heritage a global platform. Alongside, I conduct seminars, workshops, and conservation training, including specialized work on Disaster Risk Management of Cultural Heritage at NIDM. My lectures at IGNCA, Kurukshetra University, and Jadavpur University, as well as my engagements with museums such as the Salarjung Museum, National Museum, and Goa State Museum, are complemented by my international experience at the Victoria and Albert Museum, the British Museum, and other renowned institutions.
