Describing more about the theme, the artist says, "Life revolves and is woven through a woman. She is the nourishing power of entire universe, our Indian tradition, our society, our values. Everything is built around woman's emotional and practical well being. As a woman who paints, I am trying to bring out the feelings, emotions, thoughts, journey, roles, and the many experiences we women go in my artworks."
