“My work is autobiographical, a process of the metaphysical

becoming physical, exploring individuality within Universal

Consciousness,” she explains. “I love that nature favors

uniqueness and diversity, just as every person has a

unique iris or fingerprint, and every leaf carries its own

pattern. Each piece of art is one of a kind, born from a

deep sense of knowing. To me, that is the greatest act of

resistance: to be authentic, against all odds.”

This authenticity wasn’t born

overnight. It emerged through

decades of courage to unlearn

conditioning, to heal trauma,

and to embrace imperfection

as a pathway to truth.

From Ancient Wisdom to

Global Impact

Agni’s transformative journey

began over thirty years ago

with her first retreat in India,

an unexpected immersion into

ancient practices that sparked

a lifelong dedication to growth

and healing. That pivotal

experience launched her into

a life of meaningful travel,

carrying her teachings across

continents and cultures.

Since then, she has integrated

ancient wisdom with modern

science, weaving arts, breath-

work, meditation, yoga,

nutrition, and trauma-informed coaching into a holistic

approach backed by neuroscience.

“Through my own seeking and acquired ancient

knowledge and healing, I created and developed my

foundation, MAY Kids Transform, fostering emotional

intelligence and self-awareness through Mindfulness,

Arts, and Yoga,” she shares. Her work has taken her

from the bustling schools of New York to the spiritual

centers of India and educational institutions around the

world. “I’ve spent 20 years integrating wellbeing tools to

support youth and educators in schools and educational

institutions in New York, India and beyond.”

This global journey has shaped not only her teaching

methodology but also her artistic vision, infusing

her work with the diverse wisdom traditions she has

encountered.

Through MAY Kids Transform, Agni has touched

countless lives internationally, proving that emotional

intelligence, mindfulness, and creativity can be cultivated

at any age. Her approach recognizes that healing

happens not through force, but

through presence, patience,

exploration, and the gentle

power of authentic connection.

The Revolution of Quiet

Strength

In a world that often rewards

noise and spectacle, Agni’s

revolution is different. Her

strength lies in presence,

depth, and the kind of quiet

power that transforms without

fanfare. Often underestimated

b e c a u s e o f h e r g e n t l e

nature, she has learned that

vulnerability is not weakness—

it is the foundation of authentic

strength.

Solitude, silence, and nature

fuel her creative process. Light,

in particular, is central to her

work, both as subject and

metaphor. She paints with vivid

color pigments, exploring the light and shadow of being,

understanding its power to shift perception and awaken

awareness. For her, painting and meditation intertwine

as solitary acts where inner and outer worlds meet, and

the invisible becomes visible.

“We are unique yet deeply interconnected,” her art

seems to whisper. Each piece invites reflection on the

mystery of life and the unseen energies shaping our

world. It gently insists that we are more than physical

bodies, that our energy influences everything, and that

even the smallest life holds immense value.
