Indian Women Printmakers

The inclination towards animals always existed since childhood, spending most of the time observing every detail of their behavior. Sooner, this inclination started reflecting in my work. I chose to depict the melancholic reality of animals which are tortured for the human’s beneficiary.

   The work shows absurdly deceptive illusionary animal form, which usually confronts the viewers. By combining different animals to create a hybrid form, I also stress on the idea of animals, which coexist in tranquility can one that seek to dominate us. These hybrid forms tend to levitate in the works, giving a claustrophobic experience. And preposterous juxtaposition of the form adds to the brutality which they come across.

 My later works intimately deals with the animal’s inner persona, which talks about the duality in their nature. By fathoming the thoughts of the animals, I enter into a new realm. I see the world through their eyes, which mystifies the whole idea behind the work.
