In the words of the artist,
"A Hindu woman, at the beginning of her curiosity about the universe is peeking up the staircase she must ascend to the waiting cup of the night sky, filled with the Seven Sages of the Big Dipper and all of the knowledge they hold.
The glow in the bottom left of the waiting cup of the Sages…a mystery, the ongoing quest. Reaching the top of the stairs is only the beginning. The cup becomes a limitless ocean of sky.
The meaning of purple over orange clothing in Hindu culture…For her may represent a sincere wish for happiness, transformation, and the pursuit of higher knowledge while embracing life’s vibrancy and bliss."
