Maya

By Apurvaa Pandey

Caption Of Artwork: Humans often believe they command their senses, yet they overlook the invisible force that truly governs them, a power to which they must ultimately surrender. Intriguingly, this power, often referred to as God, is typically envisioned as male. But why can't this divine force be female? This painting delves into the essence of 'Maya,' the true orchestrator of emotions and senses, who, despite her celestial dominion, is relegated to a third-class existence on Earth, stripped of integrity and dignity. In reality, she is the sovereign of the world, embodying the profound paradox of a woman who, though marginalized in the mortal realm, holds the universe in her grasp.
