Veteran artist Santosh Jain is known for her work that speaks volumes on women, their emotions and feelings. Tapping into a woman’s life and what lies hidden beneath the surface has been a recurring theme in this artist’s career. The New Delhi-based artist is now back with another zinger exhibition that will display 24 paintings that capture women in their most authentic essence, unguarded and unreserved form.

Titled Her, Here, the artworks are acrylic on canvas, took three years to finish and will be on display at Method Juhu from Friday. “Every woman has a story to tell. Almost every woman I have met in my life, has loads to say and share [including me]. I deep dive into these emotions and feelings and put it on the canvas, using warm colour tones” explains Jain. The work depicts women in their most natural state, alone and bare, free to be herself, no charades and no preconceived roles to fulfil.
