AT PRESENT LIVES AND WORKS IN BARODA GUJARAT (INDIA )
Statement:
My creative works try to express an obsessive desire to find meaning in the physicality of human body. Every verb has a home in the body .One of the fundamental tasks of a visual thinker is conjure images in which this link between verbs, world and body can be presented to the realm of ideas ,for it is thorough ideas that we elucidate human life and its conditions as well as feelings , emotions, aspirations , passions and dreads. I am able trying to explore female sexuality in relation to male sexuality and sensibilities on suffering, violence and these are expressed on and through the body. The body unconsciously evokes both the desire of power and the effects of violence .Through the combination of painting as well as the repetitive and graphic nature of print.
It is my obsessive desire to present female intimacy like sensuality, sexuality, sensation and the physical body itself in its nudity I am deeply engaged with issues of sexuality in my work, wherein the male is represented by this lungi (cloth). I present my own self it. The warm tones blood red, creating a strong tension between empty space and the line .Tension is also evident in the pose of the figures embracing themselves. my works populated by overtly sexual imagery that transgresses its continents through irony and humor .the lurid forms used and embarrassment related to female sexuality.
I dont feel any need to capture everything exactly as it exists in so called reality. I appreciate space and form from on imaginative, spiritual and unrealistic perspective for me it captures what is more real and leaves an impression both on heart and mind. It also defines my form and space. In my opinion abstraction and true representation are not extensively different.
I hide a human face in my works be cause the spiriting the work for me is personal, emotional and also through provoking, I strongly assert female individual identify through her sexuality in our present time .
