Oil Paint on Canvas

Each pieces: 91.4 x 91.4 cm; 36 x 36 in.
Price: POA
This series operates as an intimate visual inquiry into the overlooked rhythms of contemporary creative labor, focusing on moments of shared sanctuary among female artists in the studio space. Serving as a deliberate, reversed reflection on Vincent van Gogh’s The Potato Eaters, which documented the exhaustive, grim weight of survival, these canvases explore a counter-narrative of communal warmth, nourishment, and emotional resilience.
Rather than a somber portrait of hardship, I wish to capture the cooking and sharing of Maggi a deeply nostalgic, ubiquitous food choice among young adults in India as an intuitive, self-preserving ritual embedded within periods of intense, often unappreciated creative exertion. Through open, texturally layered compositions, the paintings explore the fluid boundary between work and rest. I am searching for a visual language that can honor the invisible emotional scaffolding built during these brief interludes, capturing moments of genuine laughter, human connectivity, and shared vulnerability that sustain the self within a demanding urban metropolis.
