Kumari 1 ( Living Goddess Kathmandu)  
From the 'Kumari' series. Inspired by the Living Goddesses of Kathmandu, Nepal and their life’s story of pride, glory, fame and sadness. The work here depicts a more grown up Kumari, who has and is experiencing all of the above. The expression tries to capture  her expectation of the reverence bestowed upon her, based on her experience,  along with her distinct awareness of the impending end to this lifestyle and a further life of a spinster and middle class anonymity.
Mixed medium on paper 13" X 13" / 2011
