Kully Rehal is a UK-based artist. Through her Instagram account Funky Baba, she exhibits her drawings and illustrations.
She gave the superheroes a desi twist. She re-created them into the middle-aged Indian aunties.
The 30-year-old artist revealed in an interview, her inspiration to draw them:
“I feel the elderly members of our community don’t have voices to express and share their stories so I personally made them all individual pieces of art to celebrate their strengths.”
“It has given them a sense of importance and being part of something and I wanted to shed some humour to celebrate their success stories,” she added.
