Her work centers on the theme of feminine beauty, where beauty is not just a physical trait, but a state of being that evokes joy and satisfaction. Drawing inspiration from the structure and adornment of the female body, she explores how women are often evaluated against conventional standards of beauty. Her vision transcends traditional perceptions, especially in the way she portrays the female breast—imbuing it with layered meanings and fresh perspectives. She seeks to bring a new dimension to her art through the use of soft pastels, which embody the essence of gentleness and delicacy. Through these colors, she preserves the emotional depth and tenderness of her subject matter, striving to reveal an authentic reality that rises above distorted and superficial notions.

Dr. Trapti lives and works in Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, India.
