THE MOUNTAIN SERIES


Present body of work "The Mountain Series" started happening after my shifting to the hills at Dharamshala, Himachal Pradesh, in 2019. 

People like us from the plains (from the urban jungles of Delhi) do not quiet feel the power of the Nature unless we face it with full zest. The hills and the mountains helps to smoothen the knotted nerves of life spent in urban setup for a long period of time.

The more you look at the mountains the more stories it has to tell. 
After coming here and living and breathing the hills, it has enchanted its spell on me. Here starts the Mountain Series...where the relationship of body and nature comes into being. It makes me think how connected and depended we are on nature. 

The urbanisation and global warming taking a toll on this beautiful earth , bringing destruction and pandemic in human life. One needs to stop and think here that is it actually this The Development we need...The call for slowing down of the carbon emissions, to ensure the dignity of the Earth, which seems to fall flat in front of the powerful nations...will this help...
In my mind all these questions arise and screams for an answer.

The very first time I'm using a blogging space. In this I'm displaying my works, previous and present. The process of my work varies from series to series. Every series happend at a different space and time, sometimes in a different geographical location and  at  different stages of life.

Most of the series...when they happened has a different approach but certain elements continues the thread of the story, connecting one series to another like a string of pearl.

Most of my works are a reflection of my time..my personal reflections of society through me, my individual understanding of that physical time.

In August 2019 I moved to Dharamshala, Himachal Pradesh. The hills here fascinated me to a great extent...and my latest series of work 'THE MOUNTAIN SERIES & MOUNTAIN SERIES- CHAIR' (2019 onwards) started taking shape.

Through these series of work I have tried to extract the relation between body and nature.
