Cultivating Radiance

A figure stands in a damaged floral field, shielded from the rain of tears. Two intact hearts/florals catch her attention - her true sources of inner power. She cultivates these sources, to assist with radiating strength and resilience in the face of adversity.

A play on words, "phool" means "flower" in Hindi. She becomes a resistant force through nourishing herself with these inner sources of energy. Despite challenges, she perseveres and grows into a more radiant and resilient self.

Infinite Abundance

As she plays with the waterfall of florals, the figure recognizes and embraces her boundless nature. She realizes she is an infinite being, holding an endless reservoir of inner radiance, even beyond this lifetime.

She sits among the chaotic pile of energy florals from the field. She is seen holding the sources in her hands, drawing inspiration, and fueling her empowerment from all that makes her unique.

The figure is connecting the florals more, now in the symbolized shape of India. She fuels her inner radiance by diving deep into the knowledge and practice of the soul, with golden rays of light illuminating her path.

Artist Bio

Radiate Roshni Logo

“Bloom Within: Cultivating a Radiant Soul” explores the distant yet powerful connection to my South Asian heritage, celebrating resilience, growth, women, and soul empowerment. As a woman of color, I often feel the weight of cultural and societal expectations that force us into assumed categories. Navigating large generational gaps and a blend of cultural influences by Latin, Black, and South Asian, added onto the entangled identity crisis.  During the pandemic, I began a journey of unraveling and blossoming through spiritual practice and creating.

Each painting features a female figure adorned with cultural references, representing blooming through connecting deeper to the heart of her empowerment – creativity and inner light. They highlight the transformative energy of self-discovery, bold courage, tenacity, and authenticity to navigate and rise above life’s challenges. 

The ideas were nurtured from personal experiences, observations, and research transforming into digital collages and analog sketches. They were brought to life through a mixed media and multi-layered process, with gold and blue hues adding a soulful touch of empowerment, and leaves and vines represent growth and vitality.

Through the practice of ahimsa, or non-violence, and through my artistic voice, I create for inner acceptance and a desire for a revolution. I seek to inspire and empower all goddesses to cultivate their inner fire, develop resilience, boldly bloom, and thrive within their unique radiance.
