I have been working with the medium of water-colours
for quite a long time now; since last couple of years it’s become a consistent
medium for my practice. Working with the fluidity and the translucent character
of the medium has always been a fascinating experience. The current series of
small format works are the outcome of my travel to Leh-Ladakh and I consider
them as memoirs or pages from my diary. The process of creating these works
became an enjoyable experience by recollecting from memory as well as from
documented images through photography. I have tried to explore the captivating
topographical details, cultural diversity, the ruggedness of the hills and the
unique atmospheric details emphasizing on the basic characteristics of the
medium.
