The recognition marks a significant milestone in Sen’s career, celebrating her unique approach to abstraction and the emotional depth she conveys through her work.
The award-winning piece, titled Fragments of Being, is a striking exploration of fragmented identity and emotional resilience, captured through bold color schemes, intricate textures, and dynamic brushwork.

To see my work recognized on an international platform is incredibly humbling.”

From humble beginnings, she first gained attention in the local art circles for her innovative techniques and a fearless approach to color and form. Her breakthrough came three years ago, when her first solo exhibition garnered widespread acclaim, drawing the interest of international galleries.
Her signature style blends traditional Indian art influences with modern Western abstract techniques, creating a synthesis that resonates with art lovers worldwide. Through Fragments of Being and other works, Sen explores themes of identity, spirituality, and the human condition, often drawing inspiration from the intricacies of Indian philosophy and psychology.
