While spending time in my studio, I found myself painting about thoughts and thinking, realising that all actions begin as thoughts, and the one thing we can do for our own peace of mind and eventually for the world in general, is pay attention to our own thoughts, try to replace the clutter with clarity, try to find solutions for our problems. This body of work is about the difficulty in taking breaks from the constant chatter in our heads, and the elusive recesses of our minds, the working of which are often mysterious to even ourselves.
Also explored for the first time during her recent travels, Dhruvi has used the medium of clay in her new ceramic pieces - using familiar dhruvi forms.
