As a nation, we are growing at a rapid pace. Although our roots are very strong, the new acceptance of global direction has been sporadic, based on the exposure and economic conditions. This triggers certain imbalances with in the society on the whole, that trickles down to each entity or vis versa. Filling in the blanks of these issues needs to be initiated from within each individual or else the dilemma can expand.

'Size Zero'
A mother cannot avoid daughter the concept of women being
represented as icon of beauty that has been constantly fed to the society
through various means. The use of underweight models has been feeding wrong
signals to young girls who look up to them. Even if these ultra-thin models are
financially sound, they still restrict themselves from eating what they really
need to in order to be unrealistically thin. This making them suffer from anorexia
that is synonymous to 'Size Zero'. Ironically, the mind set of beautification
for girls starts at a very young age where they are handed over perfect looking
dolls and are asked to pamper them.
'Marketing & Sales'
The Unique Selling Proposition of street vendors is to provide
goods at strategic points in the urban society. With the pressure of day to day
survival, these entities are able to club different departments of Marketing
and Sales as one unite by sheer trial and error method of luring the passers by
in few minutes. The print depicts 'A' trying to understand the psychology
of 'B' in order to make a sale.
'Craving Bubbles'
The ongoing process of polymorphic state of mind where there is
push and pull of never ending needs and desires is depicted as hyper nature of
bubbles. This print shows entity 'B' not able to understand her own
