AIFACS, New Delhi, 2009 Her views about work:
‘Perception is the key to every art’. And my own perception is strongly influenced by the great western artists. What has always fascinated me is the simplification of forms, compositions with bright colours and sometimes strong rhythmical use of lines. I feel my existence with the works of Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Picasso, Van Gogh, Gauguin, Botticelli, Toulouse Lautrec, Modigliani, Warhol, Egypt and Greek vessel artists. I have experimented with some of the interesting forms… Rearranging them with my own colours, compositions, script and collages with a sincere hope that it will be cherished by all and provide a new insight….. My painting would blend the past and the present… the East and the West
