Kumari 2 ( 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 child Kumari, coming to terms with glory and fame, but with little awareness of what being a Kumari truly entails. The expression tries to capture  her innocence in the midst of rituals and a new found status.
