Inside Out: Graphic artist Jaskanwal’s new show, ‘Introspection’ is an expression of her spontaneous emotions

The artist reflects how when she began her career, her works would depict floating figures, with mushrooms and trees — symbols of softness finding ways into her prints.

The soft colours in Jaskanwal’s works, adds the artist, are a reflection of her personality

FOR more than three decades now, graphic artist Jaskanwal has been exploring the many layers and dimensions of emotions, their ever-changing faces through art. “For me, art is spontaneous and expression of my feelings. Sometimes we are sad, at other times happy, numb, for no particular reason. These reactions and responses form a part of my work,” says Chandigarh-based Jaskanwal, who studied at the Government College of Art, Chandigarh and trained with eminent artist Jagmohan Chopra. The artist is upbeat about her new show of more than 50 works, titled ‘Introspection’, which will open next week at Triveni Kala Sangam, Delhi, and will travel across the country, including Chandigarh. The works have been created as part of a residency at the Open Hand Art Studios at the Le Corbusier Centre.
