About this artwork

'Moment of reflection' is a body of work under my current series that I am producing which explores multitude of emotions and experiences of a woman.
Being a female myself, I have faced difficulties in many
phases of my life but there's something in me that
encourages me to give much more to this world and push the boundaries to achieve things that I simply used to think was unachievable. In order to exhibit those complex emotions and feelings, I have done various paintings under this series which features mature women to teenage girls as my subject. This painting is also trying to express aforementioned feelings and emotions. What I have tried to represent in this
painting is a journey of a lady from the dark phase of her life to a new phase which is greeted by blossoming of vibrant and colourful flowers. The use of thread is representing entanglements of problems and issues that she has to overcome but by colouring them in gold I am trying to show her acceptance of those hurdles and take them as a ‘golden rule’ to lead a meaningful life and that is exactly what I want to see in my reflection.
