My piece is about the gradual disappearance of culture. As our world progresses to the future, old traditions, languages and other aspects of culture slowly fade away. This is very relevant to my own life as I try to find a balance between American and Indian cultures. Using illustrator and photoshop, I created three traditional Indian women to represent culture. In Indian culture, cobras are both feared as destroyers and revered as protectors. In this piece, the cobra represents both the fear of the disappearance of cultures, as well as the need to protect it. I hope for viewer to take way the beauty, simplicity, and peacefulness of my culture.
