ABOUT THE ARTWORK

I think Black Tide is the best name I could think of for my work. It’s got X-rays of skulls captured on acrylic sheets cut out in the shape of surfboards. I look at it like Time, or as we say in Hindi 'kaala', which means both time and the colour black, dissolving away scars from the sands of human memory. The surfboards in this work act as totemic portals representing Dreaming, the Aboriginal idea used to describe the beginningless-endless journey of things and beings.

SHIPPING AND RETURNS
Delivery Time:

Typically 5-7 business days for domestic shipments, 10-14 business days for international shipments.

What interests me most in the creation of an abstract work is how form emerges with the play of colour and texture. How stories begin to paint themselves through a process that is as much a mystery to the artist as it is to the viewer. I very rarely use the brush, and often depend on the use of sponges, wires, dies and other impression-making objects. To me this lends an organic feel to the work, making it all the more ‘telling’ of its origin, intent and scope.
