New Delhi, Jan 29 When India went into lockdown, Delhi-based American artist Christina Banerjee felt the need for a creative outlet. During the lockdown, which she describes as a never-seen-before experience, the artist came up with an 'Isolation Series' of paintings, in which she uses the motifs of elephants and flowers against bold backgrounds to represent intense underlying feelings.
The Alabama-born artist has family in both India and the US, two of the worst Covid-19 affected countries, making the uncertainty and loneliness cause a multitude of emotions and feelings. "I first wrote down emotions on my phone and journal, and paintings followed from there," says Christina, introducing her latest series in art.
