Motherhood: The Birth Of A New Identity An artist's perception by Prabuddha Ghosh


Motherhood: The Birth Of A New Identity

An artist's perception by Prabuddha Ghosh


It's known that motherhood has a deep impact on all layers of a human. The oldest phenomenon in the race of humanism includes all impressions of psychological, philosophical, physical, behavioral, emotional and in professional canvas too.


Motherhood itself is not a new concept. In fact, it's timeless, universal, eternal and whether you get there by giving birth, adopting or via surrogacy, the description is the same. And yet this is the key of existence and secret of civilization. How we perceive mothers as mothers or the means of motherhood and the role of it; are really complicated and ever-changing.

Attachment is the prime issue and factor of motherhood, with the birth of the new baby she takes birth as a new mother, what she was not before that day, that time... that instance. The mother’s attachment state shapes the way she organizes her thoughts, feelings and memories of herself and others in relationship with her. These are internal working models and an intense reorganization of identity, leading to reflections on the way the woman herself was parented and all in a complete new way with some added new identity, more strong and flexible ... existence of togetherness...



Some of the excellent contemporary and traditional works.. in view of artists...

A New Vista in My Creative Journey: Entering Digital Art by Prabuddha Ghosh

A New Vista in My Creative Journey: Entering Digital Art in 2025 by Prabuddha Ghosh A fter more than thirty-five years of dedicated engagement with photography and nearly two decades of sustained practice in digital photography, I have now entered a new and significant phase of my creative journey: the field of Digital Art. This transition has emerged organically through reflection, experimentation and encouragement from individuals whose guidance and faith have been deeply meaningful to me. In particular, I wish to acknowledge the constant motivation and mentorship of my friend and senior artist, Shri Atul Padiaji of Vadodara, Gujarat, whose encouragement gave me the confidence to explore this medium with greater seriousness and depth. Equally important has been the role of my younger brother, Shri Jayanta Khan of Kolkata, who, through his persistent inspiration over more than a year, urged me to take this decisive step and begin a new chapter in my artistic life. I also believe t...

Sunflower: The Luminous Axis of Art, Spirit and Contemporary Consciousness By Prabuddha Ghosh

Sunflower: The Luminous Axis of Art, Spirit and Contemporary Consciousness By Prabuddha Ghosh The sunflower remains one of the most evocative subjects in visual culture—bridging art, spirituality and lived experience. More than a botanical form, it operates as a symbol of light, temporality and inner alignment, continually reinterpreted across cultures and artistic movements. Native to the Americas, sunflowers were cultivated by indigenous communities for food, medicine and pigments used in craft and visual expression. Introduced to Europe in the 16th century, they gradually evolved from utilitarian crops into ornamental and symbolic forms. Their heliotropic nature—turning toward the sun—established them as universal emblems of devotion, vitality and spiritual seeking. In India, the sunflower resonates with the energy of Surya, embodying abundance and the eternal rhythm of life, death and rebirth. Across cultures, it has symbolized courage, longevity, gratitude and optimism. Even i...

The Unwritten Verse: Tagore’s Soul in Color and Form by Prabuddha Ghosh (Commemorating the 164th birth anniversary of Rabindranath Tagore)

The Unwritten Verse: Tagore’s Soul in Color and Form (Commemorating the 164th birth anniversary of Rabindranath Tagore) by Prabuddha Ghosh Rabindranath Tagore , fondly and universally known as Gurudev , is widely celebrated as a Nobel laureate in literature. However, what remains lesser known is his profound and unexpected entry into the world of visual art during the later years of his life. While primarily recognized for his poetry, prose, songs, drama, novels, and philosophical thought, Tagore’s foray into painting revealed yet another dimension of his boundless creativity. Although he began this artistic journey relatively late, his artwork resonates with an intensity and vividness that are both enigmatic and deeply human. His artistic expressions are far from mere historical artifacts—they are living, breathing creations that continue to captivate the contemporary imagination. Here's a closer look at why Tagore’s art remains remarkably relevant today: Tagore’s paintings ...
