Parī (ਪਰੀ), meaning both “angel” and “fairy” in Punjabi, was a cherished nickname given to the artist by their grandmother. The wings worn in the photograph are a handcrafted tribute to the artist’s late maternal grandmother. In yogic tradition, the back is believed to carry the past. Here, the memory of the past is transformed into a site of metamorphosis, sprouting wings instead of a burden on one’s back. The wings are embedded with photo-transferred images of the artist’s grandmothers in Punjab, merging memory with material. Honouring all the women in the artist's lineage who, through quiet resistance and everyday strength, made space for each generation to experience more freedom than the last.
