In this painting by Suchitra Mattai, the central heroine is crying while adrift in a sea of blue rain. Her tears meld her with the patterns and forms around her. Her superpower is her honest self expression, a fearless and earnest emotive release. This piece belongs to a series Mattai debuted in 2023, memorializing super heroines as embodiments of feminine empowerment.
