Full Description

Nandita Chaudhuri’s works take a deep dive into peeling away the ‘onion layers’ of human behavior in a stark and vivid manner. The poems and paintings rely on graphic metaphors to convey a common thread. Introspection, coupled with profound, thought-provoking stories, explores and re-engages with deep impressions and stored images snatched from life. The two mediums, when juxtaposed, delve into emotions that would not have been possible alone, creating cross currents as they dissolve into each other. Like yin and yang, at times, they display the connectivity between the human soul and the universe at large and, at others, depict the paucity and dissociation between them.

An interplay of narratives throughout the book enables a story-line that depicts the object and the crevices within. Together, they create a unique multilayered sensory experience, conveying deep introspection with incredible synergy.
