Description

A woman cradles and nurses a child at the center of V. Nagdas’s composition, her gesture tender yet stylized, evoking both intimacy and archetype. Surrounding her are symbolic fragments—a classical bust, a red apple, and abstract forms—that suggest a dialogue between tradition, desire, and fractured identity. The exaggerated limbs and dynamic brushwork infuse the scene with emotional urgency, as if motherhood itself is being reimagined through myth and memory. Bold contrasts of color and form create a layered tension, inviting reflection on nurture, knowledge, and the body as a vessel of meaning.
