The word “ Maanavatvam“ is derived from the Indian language of Telugu and translates as “ Humanity “. This body of work dives into the true essence of what Maanavatvam stands for: beings capable of inclusive emotional intelligence. It celebrates the diversity we encounter and our understanding and acceptance of the many differences in appearances, behaviors and traits that make all people human. It questions our assumptions and prejudices, introducing an ethereal sense of beauty that we shut ourselves off from unconsciously. Maanavatvam invites viewers to think beyond their stereotypical notions of humanity and to behold and embrace a world in which our differences are what actually unite us. Maanavatvam is a bold testament to the true strength of being human in all forms and shapes.
