Aman Kumar Bavariya, an emerging artist from Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh, pursued his Master’s in Fine Arts at the Government College of Fine Arts, Jabalpur. His artistic practice is deeply rooted in the exploration of colour, often expressed through monochrome paintings that study the subtle nuances of shades. Drawing inspiration from both everyday objects and cultural contexts, Bavariya’s work engages with themes of womanhood and menstruation, challenging societal taboos through bold and symbolic imagery. His paintings often juxtaposed female figures, natural motifs, and traditional adornments like silver anklets and toe rings, weaving together narratives of empowerment, purity, and resilience.

Over the past four years, his art has evolved to highlight menstruation’s historical care alongside modern misconceptions, using flowers as recurring symbols of beauty and joy. Through this practice, Bavariya seeks to foster dialogue, break stigma, and affirm the strength and dignity of women’s experiences.
