About the Book
Covid Chronicles of India is a collection of paintings by Falguni Mehta that pay homage to Covid fighters and survivors of India. The paintings depict India's Covid scenario in a sensitive yet hard hitting manner. Her deft strokes and unique mix of colours bring to life the turmoil and challenges faced by migrants, doctors, caregivers and many others in India. Vivid and thought-provoking, each painting prompts one to think beyond one's self. Be it 'the girl on the cycle' or 'the coffin of the caregiver' - these images will sear your soul and stay there long after you have closed the book.
