I spend months experimenting with new techniques, navigating a process defined by trial and error—mostly error. It’s in my nature to push the boundaries of my materials, testing their limits until they reveal something unexpected. This approach is costly; many sculptures fail along the way. But occasionally, a piece emerges that feels complete, as though it has weathered and survived the transitions I’ve imposed.

After more than 25 years of pursuing truth through my art, I have made the decision to take what might be a permanent sabbatical from my career as a professional artist. This choice has not come lightly, but it feels like the natural conclusion to a deeply personal and transformative journey.

My family gifted me a flower arrangement adorned with green lotus pods after an exhibition in 2011 and I became captivated by these pods' developmental stages. Witnessing the pods transition from vitality to a dormant state between death and life sparked an emotional and spiritual resonance within me.

As I gaze upon this painting, one of my many self-portraits, I am filled with gratitude for the journey that led me to this point. Self-expression has been an essential tool for my personal growth, and this particular work of art reflects my state of mind at the time of creation, merging both my past and present.

Corine, whom I affectionately called 'Dushi', was a long-time friend. She came into my life when I was hiding from the world and dealing with unspoken struggles. She was my neighbour at the time, introduced herself, and opened the proverbial door into my heart and life.
