This collection of artworks is a contemporary reflection on the intertwined destinies of India’s cultural heritage and ecological well-being. Drawing inspiration from the intricate ornamentation and ancient architectural motifs of the country, the illustrations showcase the fragile beauty of an artistic legacy that is at once delicate and enduring. Against the backdrop, however, the artworks also invoke a sense of anxiety and urgency, speaking to the rapid depletion and exploitation of these treasures at the hands of commercialism and neglect. By enfolding the imagery of architecture and ornamentation within lush and verdant natural elements, the illustration asserts the need for a renewed and conscientious relationship with both the built and natural environments of India. Ultimately, these artworks are a call to action for a deepened sense of cultural and ecological stewardship and a recognition of the profound interdependence between the two.
