Hi all,again a long gap,I accept.The weather was so hot and humid in Delhi that I managed to do a set of 5 woodcuts in the printmaking studio which was suitably air conditioned.I made the best use of the time by doing work indoors,you can say.I also did two mixed media paintings using buttons,needle and thread.I shall be photo documenting them soon and upload here.
I have also been thinking and planning quite a lot about my next set of works and I think I have arrived at some concept.Will be writing about them soon.I also exhibited alongwith two other lady artists at the Lalit kala galleries in Dec.2022.It was quite successful.Bye.Will write soon

Hi all,it is nice to be back here.I have a good news to share with all my friends and art lovers.I have received the 'Art for Hope Grant' given by the Hyundai art India foundation for 2022.I shall be working more intensely on my earlier community Art project of 'the transgenders'.IN fact I have already begun my conversation with the transgender community. Due to the corona virus and lockdowns, I am unable to go out much. hope things will improve soon.
Hi all,maybe I am posting here after a long time. The reason being the current crisis and pandemic which is raging in India. India is going through a really testing time where lakhs of people are getting infected with the corona virus, there are limited number of hospitals and limited supply of oxygen and doctors and nurses are overworked.Many of my artists friend's have died during this period. I would like to help the needy in some way.
Saatchiart has included my painting in this week's collection. If my painting is sold, I plan to donate 25% of the sale proceeds to Hemkund foundation in Delhi who are distributing oxygen to needy people. So,Kindly go through the link and view and purchase my painting. Thanks https://www.saatchiart.com/art-collection/New-This-Week-05-10-2021/153961/415594/view Hi all,hope everything is fine.The virus is still very much there till vaccines come out.Meanwhile everybody be very cautious.Here,in delhi,it is difficult to get art materials of your choice as imports have been held up.So,i am struggling to proceed with my work..However just posting one of my latest work using needle and thread on paper
Immediately after the lockdown began in March,many labourers lost their jobs in India and they wanted to back tot heir native places.But there was no train or bus to travel.So,many of them started walking thousands of kilometeres to their homes.This lead to a pathetic situation with pregnant ladies,children and old people walking in the hot sun with their meager belongings.Affected by this,I began a series called 'migration.I too did not have canvas or materials to work.All I had was paper and needle and thread.So,I started stitching and telling their tales.Here,I am posting a few .hope u would like them.
Hi,everybody,I am posting after quite some time.It is to be expected since we are all going through a pandemic situation.Howsoever,I have been utilising this opportunity also for quite contemplation and creative work.By the way,I my project 'tracing the trajectory of traffic police was selected by Goethe institute and Raqs media collective as part of 'five million incidents.I began my project by visiting various traffic intersections,observing the police in action and public behaviour too.I have made a good documentation.By March 2020,lockdown was imposed in Delhi.So,I could not go out much.But I came to know that traffic police were doing lot of duties related to covid 19 like educating the public on the importance of using masks and hand sanitisers .This provided a new perspective to my project.I am posting my blogs in Hemavathy guha paintings and projects on fb.l.check out.
Hi all,I am writing after a long spell.Maybe due to the severe winter we had in Delhi.Now,we are all in the grip of the corona virus and staying home.
