Souvenirs Colorés - Paromita Das

Acrylic and Resin on Canvas, 24 x 20 x 1.5
 
In French language “Souvenir” an object that is a symbol of reminder for as a special event, the meaning is “Memories.” I keep my title “Souvenirs Colores” which means “Colorful Memories.” I have lost my younger sister in 2018, when she was just (17years). Me and my younger sister loved butterflies. It’s bring me back to the childhood. While playing we used to run after butterflies to catch them.As a children we used to think that, “if we touch the butterfly maybe we will turn colorful. Maybe every human being will turn colorful hearted.” It’s been six years I’m missing her. Now I’m thinking every time that if it happens I’m touching a butterfly, with a magic my sister is become alive in front of me. She was the butterfly in my life. With her soul she took colors from my life with her. When I see this theme nostalgia the first thought came to my mind is butterflies with my sister’s Colorful Memories.”
