Five women artists—Nitasha Jaini, Gitanjali Kashyap, Ritu Aggarwal, Ritu Singh, and Shikha Gupta—have come together for the exhibition "Parallels of Perception" at Shridharani Art Gallery in New Delhi, presented by The Quartz Collective and curated by Georgina Maddox. The show runs until June 15, 2026, and features diverse practices in abstraction, figuration, geometry, texture, and mixed media, with each artist exploring themes of perception, identity, resilience, and transformation.
The exhibition matters because it reaffirms the presence and strength of female voices in contemporary Indian art, highlighting how individual artistic perspectives can converge into a cohesive dialogue. By addressing issues such as male machismo, patriarchal conformity, meditative geometry, architectural deconstruction, nature's mysticism, and art therapy, the show demonstrates the breadth of women's creative expression and their ability to tackle complex social and personal themes through varied mediums.
