Kanika Gupta is an artist, writer and social entre-
preneur who actively influences change by leading
by example. Her visual artistic practice is diverse
ranging from stick figure doodles to sculpture,
painting and photography.
Change is Beautiful is a visual rendering of the artist's
actual brain. The illustrations subtly etched on the
respective lobes represent what was lost and what
was gained as a result of her brain injury. Change is something to be embraced
rather than feared. The brain is constantly forming new connections and neural
pathways, creating a myriad of new possibilities. Even in the face of unexpected
changes, the brain is resilient, always shining bright. This sculpture shows the
story of transformation, imperfection and the beauty inherent in change.
