MANISHA chafe
@moneysha.art
Through her art, Manisha navigates the intersections of society, politics, and identity with an unapologetic voice. Each illustration and typographic piece is a reflection of the world as she sees it - raw and unapologetic.
Inspired by lived experiences and the stories of marginalized communities, her work seeks to start conversations and challenge the norms we often take for granted. From bold typographic declarations to intricate illustrations, her pieces are a blend of thought and emotion, inviting the viewer to pause, reflect, and engage.
While the themes she explores are often heavy, she aims to approach them with a sense of honesty and a subtle visual language, allowing space for interpretation and dialogue. Above all, her art is a call to action—a quiet yet firm reminder of the power she holds to create change as an Ambedkarite Buddhist.
