Meaningful Motifs
02-01-2024
In the realm of Indian art, each depicted object carries profound religio-spiritual and symbolic significance.
The “Tree of Life” motif, portraying a many-branched tree with flowers, fruits, birds, and animals, encapsulates the interconnectedness of all life on Earth, resonating across religion, philosophy, and mythology. Similarly, the lotus, a ubiquitous motif, embodies the life-giving power of water and solar associations, symbolising the perpetual cycle of opening and closing petals—a powerful representation of life’s regenerative force. Similarly, the pomegranate motif has been revered for centuries as a symbol of health, fertility, and resurrection
Moments We Live For

I love the cacophony of a street market. Rows of vendors displaying their crafty wares, eager to make a sale but always ready for an engaging chat. Rows of vibrant cut flowers, farm fresh verdant produce, artisanal baked breads and local handicrafts…these markets are always first on my search list when I plan to travel to a new place. Making every day count, these vendors inspire me to make my today worthwhile.

Colours have a way of creating identities. Black, Fuchsia, and White create my personal spectrum of vibes. Black, the anchor, exudes sophistication and mystery—quiet confidence in every corner. Festive Fuchsia, a burst of vivacity, injects energy and playfulness, an unapologetic celebration. White, the canvas, breathes clarity and simplicity, a blank page for possibilities. This trio transforms my space into a dynamic playground where creativity meets poise. It’s not just colours; it’s a symphony of statements—bold, bright, and beautifully blended in the canvas of my daily life.
