'Apocalypse' is a symbolic interpretation of the oppression faced by women in our present society, specifically where Patriarchy has dug its claws deep. Where their human existence has been reduced to enslavement for the pleasure of men and for breeding. One hears and reads about rape and sexual violence against women on a regular basis in the news. Their individual identities have been obliterated behind veils of different kinds. A culture which has lost respect for women is already doomed. 'Apocalypse' also draws a parallel with the idea of an alien and more powerful culture obliterating the footprints of indigenous cultures in the name of progress and civilization. Cultures which have been close to nature are disappearing and a civilization which does not respect nature is doomed as well. I have used watercolor wash on handmade paper and drawn the details with a pen using waterproof ink. This painting has been exhibited at the annual exhibition, ‘Human Rights? # Memento – dalla Guerra alla Pace (From War to Peace)’ opened on 22nd June, 2014, at Fondazione Opera Campana Dei Caduti di Rovereto, Trento, Italy.

After graduating as a Bachelor in Fine Arts, I have worked as a graphic designer for 6 years in Hyderabad, Mumbai and Delhi. I resumed creating independent artworks in the varied mediums of painting, digital graphics and art installations after moving back to Kolkata in the year 2008. My chosen medium is watercolor and pen drawing on paper. My art works are an exercise in exploration of the self, as a creature of nature; an evolution through understanding of my physical, sensual and spiritual needs. They are expressions of personal confusions, visions, emotions and realizations. On one hand they are projections of my thoughts on worldly matters, which often baffle and trouble me, on the other they are personifications of my lunacies, fantasies, magical dreams, wicked thoughts and mischievous self expressions. Through their untamed and fantastic imagery, they are intimately mine and ultimately me.
