Subject 1 : Stop Abusing the Girl Child – from Inception to Bride Torturing

Topic: Dowry (Bride Torturing)

My artwork is aimed at mocking the hypocrites. India is on the threshold of becoming a world power, and yet, some of us are still stuck in the age old traditions and malpractices of dowry. The worrying factor is that this trend is as common in developed metros as it is in remote villages. its about time we stop treating the marriage like a package deal - where the bride never comes alone, she is always accompanied by expensive gifts. Weather a person can afford this or not is not an issue we are concerned with…it just SHOULD be done, and it IS done. The best way to stop being asked for dowry is to stop asking for it. Take a stand…say no to dowry

Subject 1 : Stop Abusing the Girl Child – from Inception to Bride Torturing

Topic:
systematic gender discrimination in India - Abortion of female foetuses

-Artwork Inspiration

A picture is worth a thousand words, is a proverb that refers to the idea that complex stories can be described with just a single still image.

Then i thought, will it be worth putting in efforts to make this proverb work the other way around? And i am happy to see the results, words may not be 1000 but they have created a very sensitive image that i wanted my concept to be based upon.

-Concept/Theory

9 precious months to motherhood, is an emotional story of a pregnant woman who is on the edge of loosing her unborn baby girl just because her husband/in-laws wanted her to seed a baby boy.

This is how the story goes (in her won words)

1.It took me 21 golden years to become a woman
2.I left my childhood memories, friends, relatives and parents with an ease to be yours forever and ever
3.It took me 1 unforgettable moment to be your soul mate
4.I seeded my belly with, hopes, care, dreams & love and looked ugly to make us proud parents
5.And now it is a baby girl, you don’t want us any more

“Right to Breed does not give you right to BLEED”
Think about it

-Concept Notes:
“Don’t kill your daughter. The government will raise her,”
-18 March 2007 - Union Minister for Women and Child Development, Renuka Chowdhury.

Celebrating our video launch with £100 voucher competition
isango! is proud to share our first company video with the isango! family! See HERE

We hope you find that it’s not only colourful and inspirational but that it succinctly gets across the message that it’s what you DO on holiday that leaves the lasting memory, not the logistics of how you get there or where you might stay.
