One doesn't make art for other people, even though I am very concerned with the viewer

One can hardly be Indian and not know that almost every accent, which hand you eat your food with, has some deeper symbolic truth, reality.

We live in a fractured world. I've always seen it as my role as an artist to attempt to make wholeness.
