Ants 

These ants are installed in Crowne Plaza Chennai Adyar Park hotel ,Chennai.

Ants - It is the series of work done with ants as subject.

Ants collecting food in unity is part of our collective consciousness . The act of sharing food with one another is a religious experience, Art's essentially function is to share the act of sharing and union becomes a strong metaphor for this work .

The idea of the micro becoming the macro takes centre stage, I have purposefully made this work large, dimensions being 300 cms by 600 cms and mounted it on wall, it is to bring the smallest being i.e ant into our immediately noticeable visible world What was stuck in a remote corner of our consciousness suddenly becomes a larger reality. A reality we have to confront and engage with. To give a feel of earthliness I have made the sculpture in brass and copper.

Birds In continuation of the series of works I did with bird as the central theme , I created a pair of birds sitting on a stem of a large leaf communicating to one another . What it feels in one others company , what do they talk is beyond our understanding . But it leaves a mystical effect on us . To know its complete secret is impossible . It remains outside the human intellect to know it fully . The only knowledge which comes closer to understanding nature is art . The fleeting moments in nature leaves an indelible mark on us . This sculpture is an attempt to bring such a moment to an aesthetic experience . Made of bronze and copper sheet , tried to create a symmetrical balance between the birds and the leaf . The smallness of the birds in comparison to the leaf gives a delicate feel to the work .

BUBBLE

SIZE : 120cm x 100cm x 100cm.

BUBBLE A series of two works it depicts a fragile and transitory world , a world filled with wonders of nature . It is a recollection of a childhood memory . A happiest moment of childhood is the discovery of nature and the effects it has on us to adulthood . This work depicts nature with hills , rivers , wonderful rare plants and dragonflies . A dream like quality is evoked by the use of highly polished steel which reflects things around it . I have placed a sphere in the middle of the work which acts as a mirror where the world I have created is reflected on it . The plants and dragonflies are made of copper and bronze . I have the work suspended to create fell of belief and disbelief .

WHERE TO GO

Medium : Bronze

Size : 30(h) × (w) cms.

It is an abstraction of our journey to the unknown. Life is an unresolved puzzle. 'Where do we come from what are we, where are we going' is modernist preoccupation. The lone figure climbing on a thin rope to somewhere or nowhere symbolizes for me the modernist angst.
