Premala

"I decided to base it on a coin, so that it was like two sides of the coin, because I actually think a lot of the point to her story is that we are extremely multifaceted, and there’s not just one side of us." – Ragni Agarwal

Ragni Agarwal’s artwork for “Premala” was inspired by Premala Shahane, a South Asian American trailblazer who arrived in the U.S. as a student in 1923. Premala went on to be an activist, educator, medical professional, musician, and more. Her story is preserved in SAADA’s Premala Shahane archival collection of photographs, newspaper articles, and more. 

Ragni was drawn to Premala’s story as a South Asian American woman and immigrant who embraced both the arts and the medical field and refused limiting definitions.
