Contemporary art by Charuka Arora exploring womanhood, heritage, and identity
"Sometimes what we paint is not a figure,
but a feeling that never found words.
These works carry conversations
that once happened in silence,
reminding me that resilience can be quiet,
and still powerful enough
to rebuild an entire inner world."
— Charuka Arora
