"All the world is a stage and all the men and women are merely players." Attributed to the legendary playwright William Shakespeare, this quote underlines the profound truth of human existence- that we all are but players in the scheme of the universe, eternally controlled by a power that is behind every tiny and cosmic event. In this oil on canvas painting by Dhiraj Khandelwal, that power has been personified as a youthful woman, who appears exotic with the henna tattoos on her body. In her hand, she nonchalantly holds the strings of three Kathaputlis- dolls, tugging at them effortlessly to make them perform in the drama that is unfolding. The choice of a Tree of Life, which symbolizes the eternal circle of birth, death, and regeneration is befitting for the scene, as a reminder of the cyclical motion of existence, in which all of us are bound to move, for eons to come.
