Hawa Mahal
Hawa Mahal, 2025, screenprint on Arches paper, 22in. x 30in.

Hawa Mahal in Red is a screen print that focuses on the iconic façade of Jaipur’s Hawa Mahal, rendered in a striking tritone palette of reds and pinks. The work reinterprets this historic Rajasthani structure through a contemporary graphic lens, highlighting its intricate lattice windows and rhythmic architectural repetition.
The simplified color scheme enhances the contrast between negative space and detailed form, emphasizing both the monument's ornate geometry and the balance of traditional design with modern visual abstraction. By isolating a section of the palace and placing it against a clean, white background, the composition creates a sense of elevation and reverence while inviting closer inspection of its architectural intricacies.
