2024-09-04 62

“Freedom is special to all. However, most Indian women always remain under the subjugation of men. Love teaches us to revolt for freedom. But love is a crime in a country like India. No wonder Indian women fly after getting married; they wish to fulfil all their suppressed desires and dreams. Both the flying birds in the sky and independent women in society attract her a lot."
— Sanju Das

Sanju Das is a veteran contemporary artist from Bihar. Earlier, she was practising as a Mithila folk artist. From folk art, she entered the world of modern art. Her paintings represent women expressing their dreams, suppressed desires, and lives.
