"I am interested the mark, the individual trace that we create by movement. My making marks comes mainly from two things, an interest in language and envy of fluent drawing skills. Growing up in India we heard different languages spoken around us and saw different scripts on shop signs, movie hoardings, newspapers, political banners. I could not read the scripts so my enjoyment was purely visual.
"My work has come to involve a presentation of the record of these marks. I use Lithography as a tool to record these unique marks including the clumsy twitches and jerks that are part of the drawing process. It allows me to make something intangible tangible. In the layering of these symbols and signs over and over, their original meaning is distorted and a new meaning is created through the excess of visual information."
