Sangeeta Waddhwani, a city-based journalist is set to embark on her new artistic journey. One of the highlights of the exhibition is a reflective artwork called âEco Draupadi'. This piece portrays a stripped saree-clad figure, symbolizing the deteriorating state of nature. The artwork depicts the dire consequences of humanity's greed, represented by the forest fires engulfing her on both sides.
Another notable artwork, âOut of Africa' sheds light on the exploitation of wildlife for consumer-driven fashion trends. âStories in Circles' comprises various circular and oval-shaped artworks, invoking the cosmic significance of the Bindu in Indian mythology. The collection includes thought-provoking pieces such as âWeb of Life', âLotus Consciousness', âThe Wave', âCosmic Rose', and âThe Himalayas', each offering its own narrative on sustainable lifestyles.
