About The Artwork

Rama and her children are part of my mother’s local community in India. She pulled the veil in front of her face as soon as her husband’s older brother came into view. It reminded me of my mother doing the same around Tauji (my father’s older brother). She has done it all her married life, despite the two having such love and respect for each other. They don’t even speak to each other directly. Often, I’m the mediator between them. I’ve always seen the whole thing as a bit of a faff. As a child, I’d sometimes lift the veil, exposing her deeply embarrassed face. I’m still at odds with it, and without really pushing it (because I don’t take most things seriously anymore), one day I’d love to see the two of them talk - just talk and hang out without any boundaries, without inhibitions, and with an openness that transcends cultural traditions. This artwork comes in three sizes - Small, Medium and Large. The other two sizes are listed separately.
