The present series of works took shape while analysing the struggle I encounter while I am doing my works, particularly with spray paints. I tried to relate my experiences with the painters in shipyard who are exposed to such struggle all through the day. Though that was the entry point in this set of works, in due course I started to explore the surfacial abstractions the image offered, which gave a different dimension to my work. Also the image of the gas mask could be interpreted as representing the nauseating experiences of the contemporary existence.
Since I come from a rural background my fascination with the urban culture has slowly led to understand the inherent contradictions of urbanity. So I think my work is more about this phenomenon. Through my works I try to express my discomfort with my existing surroundings
