Nesting Dolls
About this item

In this artwork, Dilrukishi Mendis explores the foundational role of family in shaping who we are. The piece features a mother and daughter, portrayed as nesting dolls, symbolising the layers of love, guidance, and identity that are passed down through generations. The child begins as fully dependent on the parent, but over time, this relationship evolves. These elements evoke the idea of growth, transformation, and the interconnectedness of family — a process that, like nesting dolls, becomes more complex and intricate as it unfolds.
