Women on Tuesday

‘Women on Tuesday’ by artist Chayanisa Sriwichainan is a portrait that uses intense decorative patterns and mystical symbols to capture a woman’s inner strength and spiritual companions within a circular frame. Against a bright pink background of swirling patterns, the woman with blue eyes and red cheeks gazes forward with a compelling intensity. Her dark hair is adorned with golden spirals, and a butterfly rests elegantly nearby. Flanking and embraced by the woman are animal friends—an owl, a rabbit, and a cat—all intricately decorated with opulent motifs. The work celebrates the image of a woman who possesses unwavering inner strength, accompanied by spiritual companions like wisdom (the owl), innocence (the rabbit), and mystery (the cat), even amid the complex and dazzling world (the background patterns). The title ‘Tuesday’ metaphorically portrays the woman as one who maintains her center and moves forward despite the challenges of the ordinary week.
