Statement of Work

​

As a young women artist, I take great inspiration from Amrita Sher-Gil, the Indian-Hungarian painter who was a pioneer in modern Indian art. Like her, I focus on studying and exploring the humanity of being a woman – our struggles, our wants and our needs from our vantage point.

I want my art practice to contribute to the dialogue about the changing perception and role of a women in society.  Love and compassion are themes core to my view of the world and my belief that women and mother nature are sources of all love. With love, change can happen.
