India may be the only country in the world where you never find two women on the street wearing the same pattern or colour of sari or other flowing traditional garments.

Sen is always surprised at how manufacturers, weavers or fabric painters can produce individual pieces of countless garments and colourful dress to please their women customers.  

From the young to middle age to older women, they are always extremely colourful in dress, especially in the northern state of Rajasthan. This cornucopia of colours in Indian women’s dressing gives Sen the grip of colour abundance in his paintings.
