Art Of The Day: Food for thought

\"\"

Artist Vasavi Medisetty manifests snapshots of routine life from Nellore, Andhra Pradesh, capturing the beauty of human existence in unexpectedly stark ways. In Raagi Sangati, we see a depiction of unassuming, essential diet of finger millet, rice and water blended to make dough balls, served with piquant greens and other sides in a quintessential, humble steel platter — made using the mediums of etching and Chine Colle, the fare is a pop of colour and appeal on an otherwise muted canvas.
