| About the Artist |
I have been producing site specific interventions in both rural and urban of environments in England and India since 1999. I produce work that is usually photographed and the image of the event is then exhibited.
My work explores a wide range of issues, including: territory and ownership, femininity and sexual identity, gender roles, cultural roles, perceptions in reality, migration, escape, fear, utopian ideals, abandonment and entrapment. |
