Statement:
I call my style pseudo-realistic, ie, I use colours of my imagination and off beat shapes to create unreal scenes which however apears comprehendible and realistic. So though my works are not realistic, they are as comprehendible as realism. Hence it is called Pseudo-realism. Pseudo-realism has now been accepted in India as a new genre and style. I also plan to now extend my philosophy in the realm of installations.
