PANDIT

‘

Since I was educated as a graphic designer, my thought process starts in visual-

izing a concept. Once that is done I quickly sketch the form and execute it in

clay. These sculptures are based on the fossils that I have seen in museums and

on the pattern left by the running water on the surface of the earth. My work

contains traces of textures left by erosion created by high and low tides of the

sea, along the Mumbai coast. My flat platters are clay canvasses on which I make

patterns of lines to create an illusion of perspective, with false depths. Gold

lines are reminiscent of the reflection of orange sunlight kissing the waves of

the turquoise blue sea in the evening sunset. I try to capture that moment on

the canvas of my sculptural forms as well.
