The artist applies heat to manipulate the texture and shape of plastic bags she reuses from her earlier works. These works are created with small, biomorphic clusters of bags, painted in various colors. Plastic bags, ubiquitous in the city of Mumbai and discarded in alarming quantities, are explored in their dual function as an ‘object of trash’ and an ‘object of beauty’
