Shifting Silhouettes:
A Journey Through Light and Shadow
Shifting Silhouettes and Charismatic Chiaroscuro-Poetry and Art complement each other, offering distinct yet interconnected experiences. Shifting Silhouettes serves as the harbinger, presenting a condensed, traditional collection of poetry designed to stir the soul and inspire introspection. In contrast, Charismatic Chiaroscuro builds on these themes with a multimedia approach, blending poetry, digital and video art to create a dynamic interplay of light, shadow, tradition, and innovation. QR codes link print to immersive visual experiences, transforming the extended edition into a layered, luminous, inter-sensory journey. Together, these books explore creativity's spectrum-from the simplicity of words to the richness of multimedia expression.

Meena Chopra's art, swinging between visuals and poetry, unravels an evocative journey of a woman through 'ruins of time' and subtle life experiences. The artist's vision glides into the surreal domain of dreams while colours melt into the dynamic play of shadows. Alongside art, words become silhouettes of meaning in their concrete and abstract garb. The poet-artist unpacks mysteries and contradictions of life through images and symbols with the light effectively outlined by darkness. This book is an extraordinary coming together of bold contrasts! - Sukrita Paul Kumar: Indian scholar, poet, critic and an academician

-She writes and paints about bubbles, rivers, origami, lotus, Himalayas-there can never be a simple catalogue, for each poem is unique in style and visual depiction. What resonates in haunting perpetuity is the female figure in the abstract appearing from the back- fluid, shapely, flowing from neck to trunk to limbs, yet it is impossible to isolate the body parts. - Excerpt from foreword-Malashri Lal Former Professor and Dean at University of Delhi.
