I finished my undergrad studies in architecture in 2017 from Bangalore. I come from Ayodhya, in Uttar Pradesh. During my stay in Auroville, I lived in several places including ‘La Maison des Jeunes’ which influenced me to make 0 comic strip relating to the community.

Adulting

The premise of the cartoon is about the relationship between a mother and a daughter. Since a very small age, the daughter had never been responsible about cleaning her room and washroom, and depended on her mother for it. Her mother always scolded her for this issue and wondered when she would learn. The daughter then moved away to a land far from home and lived in a special community. Something within her changed while living as part of this community. After returning home, the mother catches her daughter cleaning her own toilet. Overwhelmed by the fact that her daughter has grown, the mother sheds tears of joy.
