As a child, I was always fascinated by archaeology and knowing about different civilizations. I ended up being an artist and now, I can still let that kid have fun while trying to reimagine how the ancient world looked like in all its glory.
I'm planning to make a series of artworks on ancient cultures, focused on the Indian subcontinent, trying to imagine how these great kingdoms used to be, the daily lives of those days and little stories. The history of our culture is fascinating and I keep reading and finding out unbelievable details of grandeur. Hope this kindles an interest in you as well.
This is the recent artwork I made. Hope you like!
