SAPNA KARN

New Delhi, India

In her artistic creations, Sapna Karn

embarks on a transformative journey

that celebrates the beauty of feminine

energy and the courage to embrace

oneself as is. She meticulously

collects waste fabrics from local ladies’

tailors, rescuing materials that would

otherwise be discarded and forgotten.

Recognizing the potential in these

fabrics, she weaves them together to

create a canvas that tells a powerful

story of confidence, self-love, and body

positivity. The fabrics she selects are

rich in texture, adorned with intricate

patterns of flowers and leaves that

breathe life into the canvas. These

textures imbue her artwork with depth

and meaning, creating a captivating

visual experience. Sapna’s paintings

revolve around the female body,

exploring the dynamic relationship

between fabric and form. Her artistic

approach is rooted in the celebration

of the female form, serving as a

reminder that every woman is beautiful

and unique in her own way. Sapna’s

artwork becomes a tribute to body

positivity, encouraging women to love

and accept their bodies, regardless of

shape or size. It carries a resounding

call to action, urging individuals to

embrace themselves and recognize

their own inherent beauty and worth.

Sapna Karn’s intention is to establish

a profound connection between fabrics

and the female body. She aims to

demonstrate how fabrics can enhance

and accentuate the beauty of the

female form, becoming an extension

of one’s identity and a powerful means

of self-expression. Her ultimate goal is

to inspire women to fully embrace their

bodies, viewing themselves as works of

art—unique canvases that are beautiful

and deserving of celebration.
