This project approaches collage and appropriation to explore embodiment and the female psyche. Images of women are taken from art history in order to ask if painting can speak of itself; if it can become tautological. With this question in mind Vrinda looks at the relationship between the painting process and the painting object as one that can offer new perspectives on what it is to have a body, especially one that is female.
