Visual Artist Lakshmi Mohanbabu to Debut New Collection
Upcoming release will include art that highlights individualism to combat socio-cultural influences
 
Nov 12th, 2017 – Established Visual artist Lakshmi Mohanbabu has announced that she will debut a brand new collection of art in November 2017. The upcoming collection will include a series of portraits designed to highlight individualism in a world where everyone’s lives are under microscopic scrutiny.
 
Socio-cultural influences have an impact on human behavior and the way human behavior is passed down, which can be seen in the determination for what is age and gender appropriate. This can lead to biases, which define how people react to sexism, homophobia, and sexuality. Even colors are associated with socio-cultural impacts, as Mohanbabu explains:
 
“Colors worn for various occasions, may be diametrically opposite from one group to another group of people. Black is the color of mourning for some groups of people and white for others. White may symbolize purity and is worn by brides in some cultures and yet viewed as an absence of color and therefore worn by widows in other cultures which may favor fire colors such as red and yellow. Blue is the color for baby boys and pink for baby girls in western cultures but has no such significance in other cultures.”
 
Mohanbabu questions how these preconceived notions translate from culture to culture, where different traditions and beliefs are observed. For instance, self, anxiety, and depression might not relate in the same context when observed in new cultural settings.
 
According to Mohanbabu, her new series of portraits examines individuality. “Age or race does not define the color of skin or hair. Men and women have metallic lips colorful skin and glasses. The glasses help depict the view of the external world it’s reflection and influences on the mind.”
 
Each portrait features an acrylic frame allowing light to filter through to the background, and the glasses in the portrait are designed to gives an illusion of the same light filtering onto the face in the painting.
