Flower and Fire

Two women stand rooted yet radiant, their hair crowned with flames and flora, stitched in electric pinks and fiery oranges that blaze against a cobalt blue sky. Between them, bold symbolic forms—leaves, flames, and swirls—speak to cycles of growth, destruction, and rebirth.

Tigers and serpents roam the bottom edge of the scene, nodding to temple guardians and ancient myths, while protective red hues echo the sacred symbolism of Indian devotional art. Every detail is hand-embroidered with layered meaning, from the zigzag hems to the coiling flames.

This is a piece about power—creative, destructive, and sacred. The fire heals, the flowers speak, and the women hold it all.
