MADHAVI SRIVASTAVA
ERODE, 2025
Etching and Aquatint
At PrintAdda Studio, I worked on three zinc plates, to explore the intricate language of energy, t ransformation, and decay through etching. Together, these three images trace a poetic arcbeginning with the birth of life from a seed, flowing into the tender emergence of new leaves, and f i nally dissolving into the gentle decay of fallen flowers. Each artwork explores a different stage in nature’s cycle: growth, blooming, and erosion. Energy is a thread throughout- released by the seed, nurtured by the leaves, and returned to the environment through decay. The series invites viewers t o notice the silent beauty that surrounds us, to slow down and reflect on how life moves in circles, offering renewal in every stage. It’s a visual meditation on transformation, care, and the invisible f orces that shape the natural world.
