// Phantom Lady #22 by Pushpamala N., produced between 1996 and 1998, is a black-and-white gelatin silver print that offers a cinematic, noir-inspired portrayal of a woman in an urban setting. The photograph depicts the figure seated on a bench in what appears to be a deserted train station, surrounded by tracks and signal lights, under a web of overhead wires. The scene captures an atmosphere of solitude and suspense, with the composition suggesting a narrative yet leaving it ambiguous. Pushpamala N., known for her use of self-portraiture and staged photography, often explores themes related to identity, gender, and social roles in Indian society. The Phantom Lady series reinterprets archetypal female figures with a modern twist, questioning traditional representations of women. Limited to an edition of 10, this photograph resonates with the tension and mystery that characterize Pushpamala's unique visual language.
