Twilight Pujas also a red painting, and Morning Pujas with yellow and blue water, capture the serene and timeless ritual of evening and morning pujas along the Ganga. Women are portrayed immersed in their devotional practices—gestures reverent and deliberate. The scenes emanates a quiet strength, celebrating the resilience of tradition amidst the ever-pressing currents of modernity.
The paintings honor these women’s steadfast commitment to their cultural heritage, an act of defiance against the temptations of a consumer-driven lifestyle, offering instead a contemplative reflection on the power of tradition in an ever-changing world.
