Project 01
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.
