Bodies of work
MS Subbalakshmi
These portraits are my attempt to sit with greatness and not look away. Each face belongs to a woman whose music or movement has outlived every attempt to define it and watercolour, with all its unpredictability, felt like the only honest way to approach them. I wasn't trying to capture a likeness; I was trying to capture the feeling of being in the presence of someone who has given their whole life to their art.

The white of the page isn't empty it's the space where everything unspoken lives.
