I am Indian, and I'm proud of it. Indian life is mythologically rich and powerful.

I don't want to have anything to say, it just gets in the way. I think the journey of an artist is a journey of discovery and some engagements with paint, with the nature of material, with bodily things...One wants to open the story, not close it.

My work is not about my life history. It's not about the story of my neurosis

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

The most important things that one's working on are not necessarily the most important things that one thinks one's working on.

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.

If sculpture can really deal with the body, because we all inhabit ourselves, and if sculpture can really do that, which it is supposed to be able to do, and through it ask questions, philosophical questions, about being, I think these are all things we work on, all of us in our different ways, so perhaps somewhere in there, there are moments where dumb objects can speak.
