Using rhythmic swirls, the artist explores the subject of spiritual
freedom for an Indian woman. The complex interweave of liberation and commitment
becomes symbolized as the bird and the child, respectively. Mother, child
and birds are nestled and united in one body, echoing the poet Rabindranath
Tagore's words: Not for me the deliverance that comes from renunciation;
for me,the embrace of freedom in a thousand bonds of delight.
