Art is the most fundamental form of expression, vital to the very existence of human beings.

The women of India have been ensnared in a constant struggle ambuscaded stigmatization and persecution by the society for centuries, from ages countless efforts have been made to bring in awareness and change of attitude towards the woman clan. Thus, Art being used as one of the most widely used mediums for expressing the plight of women suffering in India.

When we talk about intense expression and feelings we come across an artist who is a poet at heart, coy, intense but impeccably ingenious. Her paintings are based on series or single women-centric themes (motifs) structured on the feelings of how a woman gets grilled on the separations with regard to relations pertaining to the close siblings with whom she shares a colloquy filled with Love, Concern, and strong Manacle. Swati happens to entwine her own experiences, as after marriage how was she pulled away and distance was created between her and her siblings. Some of her paintings show distress, distance, nostalgia, desolation, withdrawal, heartache, and solidarity, these emotions have been gradually induced with time and experience until now. The colors used are mostly Yellow Ochre, Greens, Blues, Reds, and Black.

Her strong line work and force which is created whilst drawing is intrinsic and impeccably perfect to the emotions exposition elucidated.
