    This series of evocative, sepia-toned works celebrate Indian culture through traditional Indian folk art forms and elaborate bronze and granite floor works. Stylised animal paintings adorn the walls, alluding to the buffalo stables that gave the surrounding area its local name.[2]
  • DT12-Woven Field.png

    The glimmering installation of geometric patterns made of aluminium was inspired by the patterns in traditional Indian saris. The tessellated triangular patterns also integrate the notion of weaving, interlacing the architecture and artwork to form a single entity.[2]
