About the Art

This painting by Mukti Singh Thapa is a beautiful blend of traditional art with a contemporary subject. The paintings depicts a female figure holding various objects ranging from a baby to a sword, a beheaded head, a gun and what not. The main subject is surrounded by various female deities and devotees. 

The painting tries to show how a woman is delicate enough to take care of a child but also fierce enough to hold weapons if necessary. She can be the everloving and giving Yogini or wrathful warrior.
