Because to her father’s military profession, Aggarwal was up in several places, and she finds great inspiration from the years she spent growing up surrounded by the beauty of different environments. Her artwork is imbued with a nostalgic yet transcendent aspect, intertwined with recollections of flora, fauna, and shifting horizons from her childhood.

Under the tutelage of a master of Indian Contemporary Art, Aggarwal honed her craft, refining her ability to imbue each stroke with profound meaning and introspection. Her canvases serve as portals into the complexities of existence, where she navigates the nuanced hues and shades that define human experience.
