She/ Her
Ashwini Magare is a contemporary fine art painter from India whose work centers on lesbian love and the emotional landscapes shared between women. Through her paintings, she explores intimacy, tenderness, identity, and the quiet strength of female connection.
Her practice is rooted in the belief that love between women is natural, complex, and deeply human. By portraying these relationships with honesty and care, Magare challenges societal norms and creates space for queer narratives that are often overlooked or silenced. Through expressive color, gesture, and body language, her work captures moments of closeness and vulnerability—offering a visual language of freedom, self-acceptance, and emotional truth.
