My work grows from my personal experience of migration, memory, and womanhood. I use patterns, fabric, female portraits, and still life to explore how identity is carried through the body, objects, and inherited materials. Inspired by Indian textiles, miniature painting, and domestic craft, I create layered paintings that connect personal history with wider cultural stories. Recently, I have begun painting on my mother’s sarees, transforming them with repeated patterns and female figures. These fabrics hold intimacy, family, care, and movement between places. Sustainability is important to my practice, as I reuse textiles and give them a new life rather than treating them as discarded materials. Through my work, I want to celebrate female bodies, portraits, and voices while questioning ideas of home, belonging, and displacement. In the future, I hope to develop larger textile-based installations that bring together painting, memory, and storytelling, inviting the audience.
