“I want to
do so many things, and I know that I can but the only thing which I need is
little bit support”. This is not only my verdict or thoughts but I think every
woman have it in herself.
Ujjayani Nandi |
I Ujjayani Nandi artist from
the North Eastern part of India, form a very last time try to present inner puzzle or hidden desires of
a Woman. I completed my graduation and Masters from IKSVV
Khairagarh. I believe in changes and for this I believe to break stereotypes
and for it I consider my art as a most powerful medium.
Being
a lady with bold character… no doubt, I always make my way from no way, and try
to express the suppressed feeling of women through my art work. Being an artist
I always try to send progressive messages to the society so we can make a
better world for everyone. I believe in freedom and of course women freedom,
which is our dominant desire for a better world.
Nature
is a dominant think which attract my art forms, just imagine if it may possible
that tree, birds, animals can express their feelings or the things which going
with them then I truly think that it must be look like my work, which have all
that natural form and textures. I draw what I feel. I always try to create
those feelings which come out from the incidence which happen to me or a woman
nearby to me. My issues are very minor, mostly not noticed by many people, for
ex I grew up in my family with my younger brother in same love and care but
still at certain point we experience the difference of low and high among us. Surely
we didn’t face gender discrimination in an educated family like us, but still I
feel it any how in many places, though I have equal rights as my brother.
I try to imply this view through my work, I am sure
that it is not my pain but yes it is the bitter truth which I feel at many
aspects of my life.
“A
lady is a perfect Home maker” actually this is the basic ideology of our
society and somehow I also agree with it. A lady is actually a home maker
doesn’t matter that she is a working woman or a house wife, she always have a
responsibility of making, she was treated as a leader of this task but still
she didn’t enjoyed the freedom of taking open decision in the making of her own
vision. This thought always fascinated me and of course I feel it too many
times which come as an imagination in my prints.
Yes I
can say, that my prints speak women’s emotions, my emotions and yes I just love
to do it, because it gives a relief to my thunder through which I can assure myself that, yes I
express what I feel. It gives me such a strong feeling of expression which
actually oxidized my nature of freedom.
