Feminine flawlessness
The selected painting is an extension of the body of work by Sonaly.
Sonaly Gandhi completed her studies in fine arts from Gwalior and is settled in Hyderabad as a freelance professional artist. The mention and accentuation of the modern contemporary woman remains the prominent feature in the works by Sonaly.
Sonaly tells us more about her work, “For me, every woman is beautiful and her charisma is not restricted by any particular custom or country. Hence, I use perfect symmetrical forms like squares, rectangles, checks and butterflies to cover the dignity of the female figure.”
The selected painting is an extension of the body of work by Sonaly. The emotional chasms that exist between the couple get exemplified through the stance of their bodies.
Sonaly’s protagonist stands for and relates to all women regardless of their diversities. The complexity of modern relationships where the balance and shift of ‘ego’ creates multiple layers of distance and differences gets unveiled in the present painting.
