Vasundhara Tewari is one among the young generation painters who have indulged into exploring the potential of figurative paintings. Here it is worth mentioning that her images surface out of the perception of a woman and the psycho-political existence of the female body.
Vasundhara first drew attention for her sensitive mixed media work in which an interpretation of the suppressed womanhood within the existing societal structure in contextualized by her female nude images. Her treatment and use of the female nude soon diffused she creates are abstraction and are often emblematic of the inner life or contemporary women. Her paintings are characterized by tensions arising out of the naturalistically modeled figures and the flat pictorial space which is enriched with small focuses of tonal recessions.

In the more recent works of Vasundhara, a sensibility towards the understanding of the internal and external psychological spaces of the artist alias the ‘woman’ is displayed lucidly. In these works the human figure does not occupy the space of the protagonist, but shares a equi-focal space with the background objects, where both are of equal significance. The identifiable artist psyche and experiences surrounding it stands as meaningful reality for Vasundhara. Her paintings are a celebration of a contemporary woman, unafraid to reveal her soul and at the same time, participate in the daily life-patterns unencumbered.
