Nayana B

Nayana B aims to challenge socio-economic hierarchies through her paintings, focusing on the Kaudhi (quilt making) culture in Karnataka. This culture brings women from different backgrounds together to create beautiful quilts from recycled cloth, symbolizing unity and strength in the face of social, economic, and political challenges. The childhood memory of grandma's quilt inspires Nayana's work, addressing caste system hierarchies and environmental and feminist dialogues within the Kaudhi culture.
