I am an artist exploring femininity as a fluid, intuitive, and relational force, an intelligence that emerges through material, gesture, and ritual. I work with silk, wool, hair, cotton, and linen, collaborating with these materials as carriers of ancestral memory, sensorial energy and cultural resonance. I honour ways of knowing that resist patriarchal logic and linearity, cultivating instead an embodied, imaginative consciousness shaped by entanglement, transformation, and care. I see my work as a way of understanding femininity not as something bound to the body, but as a living intelligence accessible to all and felt across time, matter, and relation. ‘Palimpsest’ is a response to the inherited expectations of Indian womanhood to settle, to serve, to mother, to embody beauty and restraint. It questions what a feminine identity might look or feel like outside these scripts, outside the body as a site of sexualisation or duty. Instead, it leans into a feminine consciousness understood as intuitive, relational, and entangled: a way of knowing that arises not from logic or language, but from materials, gesture, and ritual. In my work, the feminine manifests in the act of fraying, winding, threading, unravelling, movements that resist order yet carry meaning, a choreography of the hand where thought merges with making. This is not an explanation but a practice of sensing; a language that is not made of words, because femininity, too, has never been fully captured by words.
