| Mourning Rocks, (2000). | ||
| Inks and Gouache on wasli | ||
| 11 x 15.5 cm. | ||
| Collection of Vishaka Dasai. | ||
| In this painting I
have shown a beautiful landscape on a tea-stained wasli paper, so the
tea washes try to create a dismal and cruel cloudy sky and opaque white
colors shows frozen rocks and the image of gestures mourning in drapery
emerging from these rocks. I wanted to show them without faces or black
holes instead of portraits because such women can never restore that
respect in this society and they hide themselves in such chadders and
they are lost for ever. Again in the foreground is a static pond flowers plucked and throne in this pond just like women raped, killed and disowned by their own families. Beside this pond there are swords growing from the ground. |
