Me-POV-Me series (2024 - )

Medium: Oil on Canvas Panel

Me POV Me is a deeply personal series that invites viewers to experience the human form through my unique perspective, confronting a deeply personal journey of self-acceptance. This collection focuses on my legs, captured from my point of view in quiet, everyday moments.

Growing up in South India, I was taught that showing my legs was improper, with strict norms dictating how girls should sit and behave. These expectations left me insecure and embarrassed about my legs, a part of my body I learned to hide, even as an adult. I often hide them to avoid unwanted attention, creating a narrative that my legs were the problem and not the people. "Me POV Me" is my way of reclaiming comfort and confidence in my body. By painting my legs from my perspective, I turn this once-taboo subject into a celebration of self-expression, capturing both their form and my emotional journey.
