​​​​​​​Description:

While traveling to Chhattisgarh, India on a family vacation, I came across an old woman and her great-granddaughter, belonging to a local tribe. The woman was around 88 years old and the baby was only around 3 months. Yet, I saw a similar kind of fragileness in both of them. 

Through this painting, I want to show the funny concept of time. 4 generations apart but they both were equally awed at the sight of civilians.  I tried to capture that moment of similarity yet difference and the bonding between the two.
