To and Fro

Vasundhara Tewari Broota’s works revolve around the perception of modern women in a political and psychological sense. With nudity as an empowering symbol and the relationship between the modelled figure and her space, Broota changes female portrayal in artworks as subjects rather than objects. She paints in To and Fro a woman purposefully navigating her way through a labyrinth of sorts while the lower half, in a darker shade, denoting a male figure makes us wonder if the protagonist will ever escape the drudgery of her life?
