A captivating female figure takes centre stage, distinguished by her long, thick, and bushy hair that takes on a life of its own. The artwork pulsates with an inherent quality of vibration, a deliberate choice by Chowdhury to infuse his drawings with vitality and animation. The intricately designed attire of the figure sets this piece apart from the artist's other works, showcasing a meticulous attention to detail.
Chowdhury acknowledges that the larger-than-life eyes of his female subjects find their roots in exposure to folk art and childhood memories. This portrayal captures the vibrancy and liveliness that defines Chowdhury's unique artistic vision.
