Nippon Gallery presents The Mighty Faces: Meet the Human Psyche, a compelling solo exhibition by Prashalee Gaikwad that explores the complexities of the human mind through raw, instinctive drawing and expressive portraiture.

In an age dominated by polished images and digital perfection, The Mighty Faces returns the viewer to something visceral and deeply human. The faces that emerge in this body of work are not conventional portraits; they are fragmented, distorted, and layered with relentless mark-making. Scribbles interrupt facial features, forms overlap, and lines repeat obsessively—evoking mental noise, overthinking, suppressed emotions, and internal conflict.
Bold strokes and chaotic gestures create a sense of urgency and restlessness. Eyes often appear distant or heavy, suggesting exhaustion, detachment, or introspection, while exaggerated or restrained mouths speak of emotions oscillating between silence and release. Rejecting realism in favour of emotional truth, the works present the psyche as fluid, unstable, and vulnerable.
Rather than portraying the mind as calm or resolved, the exhibition embraces contradiction and disorder. Each face becomes a psychological map—revealing how identity is shaped by unseen internal struggles as much as by outward appearances. Though deeply personal, the works resonate universally, inviting viewers to confront discomfort, recognise shared emotional states, and reflect on their own inner worlds.
Meet the Human Psyche stands as an honest and unapologetic exploration of the mind—layered, noisy, fragile, and profoundly human.
