Daydreamers

-->The life-support of Metropolitan cities like Mumbai are its local government transport. The journey is cumbersome with crowded buses and trains. Amidst this hectic journey from place to place, my observation of women gave me the impression that each entity created their own space by blocking their surroundings, with the shield of Daydreaming. A process were they were teleporting for the day to reach their destined dreams rather than their destination.

On Credit

On Credit, Acrylic on Canvas, 2012, 102x127 cms

The painting is about the purchasing power of youth population that prefers fast, bold and unsecured life. Unlike previous generation in India who preferred to save money and lead simple lives, these young populous rely heavily on credit cards. This is also affecting the society as the energetic group get entangled in financial problems rather than fulfilling their future goals. Living on credit is fairly new to the culture and the consequences are not understood by people of this age group.
