the city between the sun and gold Painting

I am using mixed media for my painting, installation, sculpture, performance and multimedia works such as Gold & silver leaf, beads, Bindi, carpet made of unused apparel waste, industrial paints, acrylic, gouache tempera, wood, bark, metal, precious and semi-precious stones. Materials like gold and silver I am using not because of its cost, I am using such materials because of its historical, traditional, political and social values. I am more interested in unused materials rather than recycled materials. The values of the material is more important than their cost.
