Nuclear Goddess
Rithika Pandey's mural at Mumbai Urban Art Festival depicts a post-apocalyptic world that experiences a terrible flood, leading to the emergence of a "nuclear goddess".
She is a visual artist from Mumbai. Her artworks investigate the mystical spaces that exist within human entanglements, and issues of displacement, femininity, and hybridity. She paints imagined worlds that act as sacred spaces and highlight companionship and recovery.

Rebirth
Rebirth of leaves of the canon ball tree in Bandra.
In India, the tree is sacred to Hindus, who believe its
hooded flowers look like the nāga under which the white stigma looks like a
Lingam, and hence, it is grown at Shiva temples. The cannonball tree has since
then been planted at Buddhist and Hindu religious sites in Asia in the belief
that it is the tree of sacred scriptures. In Sri Lanka, Thailand and other
Theravada Buddhist countries it has been planted at Buddhist monasteries and
other religious sites. Ref Wikipedia
