Collection: Naina Somani

Born and brought up in Udaipur (raj.) I'm currently working as a freelance artist/ printmaker based in Udaipur (raj.). I have spent most of my days travelling through the mosaic of mesmerizing peace and chaos the city offers. The general hustle and bustle of the city and all humans I encounter, intrigues me. They become inadvertent muses channeling the concepts of my artworks. In my recent body of works, I represent the sensitivity I mirror towards the realities faced by human and nature in the society. This superimposition of technique supports my intention to reveal complex layers of the natural psyche world transparently. The main concept of my artworks portrays mirror of us, our existence of being a social person, and an emotional at heart. Portrayal of a connection between humans and animals which are considered differently but are made up of the same one and only one element of universe. All the human beings and living beings on this planet are sharing the same universe as we do but are not considered and not provided that much right because in the today's scenario where animals are used for much utility and resources like leather, fur, eatables, etc are killed and harmed every minute of life. A special motive of mine is to connect the society in oneness i.e. unity and leading our pathways hand in hand. I usually try to depict the ideology that we all have similar emotions to highlight the equality among all of us, independently of what race, religion or cultural inheritance we have. I create slightly 'similar body and face as a skeleton' hoping that the viewer can go beyond the specifics of one person/ face and see themselves in each of them.
