Jalebi

Close-up of coiled jalebi spirals layered across the canvas, rendered in grayscale to focus on shape, rhythm, and overlapping forms.

Coiled spirals of jalebi fill the canvas, their looping forms overlapping and interlocking. Rendered in grayscale, the sweetness becomes structural—line and rhythm instead of color. This painting is one of five in a comfort food series exploring how familiar treats carry celebration, memory, and warmth.
