Durga - Mahishasurmaridni is a triptych showing the warrior Goddess "Durga" who is worshipped to celebrate her victory over the demon "Mahishasur." In this triptych she is holding various weapons in each painting as if she is ready to "Slay the Demon." With these strong stances I celebrate the power of a mother that is within each one of us. My artworks are done in a maximalist tradition and I draw subtly from the miniature and folk paintings of India.
