NAARI - "woman" in Hindi
Elephant Parade, was organized by the Elephant Family in Mumbai in March 2017 and in London 2018 to raise awareness and funds for conservation of elephant corridors in Asia. As a part of the parade, numerous elephant sculptures were displayed and later auctioned for the same charity. I had the opportunity of creating one installation for each parade. Naari was painted in Mumbai and displayed in London.
