attempt is mainly to document
collective miseries of peoples and investigate social pathology
behind the misery. the dominant political discourse today is
dictated by the state, market and media - none bothered about
the weak. the alternative to this discourse seems to drift
towards being self-obsessed - hedonist, reclusive or esoteric.
so there is a need to reiterate that hunger, poverty and violence
still afflict a vast majority of humans in the world.
the paintings endeavour to state this problem.
