This exhibition is dedicated to the memory of Ekta Vashdev Kishnani (Geetu)- mother, daughter, sister, friend – who lost her life to Covid in February 2021. She represents women everywhere, who serve as anchors and guiding lights to their families, communities, and the world. It is because of women like Ekta that this exhibition is possible.
