I explore many anecdotes and incidents of the day to day life, with a marked surrealist’s perspective. I arrange elements in my work with combination that are inspired by the subconscious, mind and secured imagination. I reside and work in Mumbai.

Memories are neither fragments unaffected by events at the centre, nor are they frozen in time, they are forged in the thick of everyday life, nurtured selectively, carefully and often quite unimaginatively. Memories are integral part of my artworks. From Kalinarayanpur's rustic-ness to Naihati's industrial atmosphere, from the poetic trance at Santiniketan to the daily-life struggle in Baroda and finally urge to fulfill a dream as an artist in ‘ultra-urbanization’ of Delhi, each chapter of my life has its own significance and inspiration. Each of the memory calls to mind fragmented nostalgia that ends in ‘collective memory’ which gives birth to my ‘brain children’- my artworks.
