The artist proclaims that she does not belong to any particular school of art, and does not believe in making a statement through art. She tries to fathom ‘what I am as an individual’, albeit neither in any particular socio-political context nor in context of my immediate milieu. Painting for her is a quest to answer self-posed queries. She lives and works in Vadodara.
