A line embodies a lot more than what it implies. A line which runs between two countries defines their territorial boundaries, while the unreachable yet visible horizon line represents a union of intangible entities. For me this very line helps to divide the space into several units, and is a key element of my works. There are certain other invisible lines drawn on unmapped territories of the human psyche, with emotions of love, hate, ego, avarice etc. An imbalance of any of these lines could result in disharmony of an entire functioning ecosystem of humanity. Be it a family unit, society, a nation or the entire world, lines of control are employed for the balance to be maintained.

Be it a social, political, or personal identity, one is subjected to a constant battle of dominance and subjugation based merely on the employment or defiance of these mental or physical lines of control. While these rules and regulations help to harmonize the differences in humanity, ironically, at some point these same rules and regulations restrict humanity. My works address this conflict zone all of humanity carries within, expressed and unexpressed.
