This exhibition marks a significant milestone in her illustrious journey, further solidifying her reputation as a leading figure in digital art across India and international art circles.

“Art, throughout history, has served as a bridge between cultures, fostering understanding across generations. My work builds upon this rich legacy, striving to connect tradition with innovation. I invite viewers on a journey of exploration and reflection, hoping to inspire future generations to carry this dialogue forward” said Michelle Poonawalla, Managing Director Poonawalla Engineering Group.
