My visual practice navigates the intersection of cultural memory, food traditions, and socio-political resistance. At its core is “A Feast of Identities”, an ongoing painting series that explores the diverse culinary heritage of Northeast India. Through large-scale,detailed works, I depict regional dishes not only as sources of sustenance but as vessels of memory, migration, and identity. Drawing from Dutch still-life painting and contemporary food menu aesthetics, I reimagine traditional compositions to honor the rich food practices rooted in community, ecology, and ritual. Food Ingredients are not merely visual subjects—they are carriers of oral histories and shared resilience. My aim is to create immersive works that evoke sensory experience while fostering dialogue about belonging, ancestry, and cultural continuity. North-Eastern cuisine, with its diverse flavors and unique cooking techniques, shares strong connections with the culinary traditions of South Asian countries like Vietnam, Thailand, Myanmar, and the Philippines. Ingredients such as fermented bamboo shoots, sticky rice, smoked meats, and fresh herbs reflect a broader Southeast Asian influence, distinguishing it from the more homogenized food culture of mainland India. Migration and cross-border trade have led to the exchange of flavors, cooking methods, and preservation techniques
