A ROAD SIDE STORY - II
These artworks are about contemporary livelihoods and the condition of life of
the marginalised people living on the roadside. It has become a normal situation in
the current situation that when we travel on the roads, we see people without
livelihood on the roadsides. It is more common in cities. Through my artwork, I try to
introduce people who are unheard on the roadside to society. For days I was
wondering why they were pushed to the side of the road. Every human being has a
story related to his life. Similarly, for the people who have no roadside livelihood,
There will be a story. Nowadays, many social activists are bringing to light the plight
of people who are living their lives on the roadside with no means of livelihood
through websites. Their stories hold many questions for today's contemporary
societies. Each question hits the current society with multiple burdens. I try to bring
out these questions through my artwork.
