Women on Monday

‘Women on Monday’ by artist Chayanisa Sriwichainan uses intense colors and decorative patterns to capture serenity and rest found amidst the fatigue of Monday within a circular frame. The bright, intense yellow background and swirling spirals seem to symbolize the vibrant yet complex external world. The woman at the center rests in deep tranquility with her eyes closed, tightly embracing her beloved cat. The cat in her arms wears a comfortable expression, and she is accompanied by ornately decorated birds nearby. The woman’s warm smile and steady embrace illustrate how she finds emotional solace and strength through the most intimate bond, even at the start of a complex and demanding week. This work is a visual celebration of the value of inner sanctuary and the unconditional happiness provided by pets.
