Limited edition Giclee print 50 X55 cm

Navarasa, the nine emotions is rooted in classical dance theory (Natya sastra), written between 500 BCE- 500 CE, India. Nine emotions starting top left, are Shringara (love/beauty) , Hasya (laughter), Raudra (anger), Bibhatsa (disgust), Shantha (peace or tranquility) Karuna(empathy,sadness), Bhayanaka (fear), Adbutha (wonder), Veera (heroic)

This artwork is created in response to the long lockdown, heightened emotions experienced by many women around the world. This was a time of intense emotions from fear and disgust/Bibhatsa (expressed with repetitive cleaning of any surface), sadness and empathy (karuna) at the loss, peace/shanti when the world got locked away, wonder as we connected back with nature and heroism of all key workers who carried on with their work.
