Artist Statement
 

Being a Bihari, my work revolves around the visual storytelling of chapa print used in our culture, depicting vibrant colors and a fusion of shimmery silver floral block print.
My work weaves a narrative of continuity by depicting the timeless journey of a chapa saree being passed down through generations. Each brushstroke is a tribute to the rich tapestry of our shared history, connecting us to our roots and fostering a sense of identity and belonging.
Through these visual narratives and the significance of Chapa in my life, I hope to evoke a deeper appreciation for the significance of chapa print and the enduring beauty of our shared legacy.
