Chandelier has the connotation of being the symbol of wealth and a vibrant social environment. Astika's oeuvre reflects her subjective experience of being in between both traditional and urban ideals, like a swinging chandelier captured by a camera. The motion blur creates an image of chaos and anxiety while the shine of chandelier reminds us of society that relentlessly aim for perfection according to their own set of standards.
