Muroora was inspired by Vermeer’s painting titled the milkmaid. Muroora translated to English means daughter in law. In Muroora ,Tamary Kudita aimed to portray the sitter’s passion which is cooking as well as her side hustle which involves selling spices. Although she is in a domestic space her regality still shines through. The traditional food paired with the stylistic depiction of a Dutch still life was an aim to reinvent modernity by borrowing from the past. The stillness and paused movement presents a personal and intimate feel to the composition.
