Sanatan Dinda (born 5 February 1971) is an Indian visual artist from Kolkata India. He grew in stature to be the first Indian artist having a displayed portrait of Mother Teresa at the Buckingham Palace (a commissioned work).

Sanatan Dinda discovers the beautiful amidst the ruins of a dilapidated city; his work becomes lyrical while he puts his signature on the curves and cleavages of sculpted human bodies. Born in the intestines of North Kolkata, the lanes and by lanes of Kumartuli, the squalor and the dirt, the refinement and nuances of a traditional craft of idol-making, the ancient river, the lonely bathing places taught him everything.

Poverty all around, Sanatan had enough courage, even in his formative years, to convince himself that eternity could be invented, here and now, in a day. His art, both sculpture and painting, engages in a dialogue between tradition and modernity. Today, his work can be considered to be a prime example of contemporary Bengali visual culture. For last few years, Sanatan has been trying to stress upon traditional clay-sculpting – primarily the local popular sculpture of Mother-goddesses – as an extension of mainstream art within the domain of modern installation art practices

Sanatan Dinda contributes to the Durga puja of his locality and in doing so has picked up various awards. His artwork is in the private collections of former cricketer Sachin Tendulkar, Amjad Ali Khan, RPG Enterprises, Reliance Industries, Ballarpur Industries Limited, etc. His connoisseurs include a diverse range of people, from Sanjib Goenka, Harsh Goenka, Tina Anil Ambani, Shahrukh Gouri Khan and Jyoti Vikram Thapar to Amitabh Bachchan. His exhibitions have been appreciated both at home and abroad. His exhibition at the Hyatt Regency hotel in Kolkata on 28–29 January 2010 was inaugurated by Amjad Ali Khan.

He graduated in fine arts (Western painting) from the Government College of Art & Craft, Kolkata in 1992. Dinda won the World Body Painting Festival in 2022.
