The conflict within ones mind, border within ones mind, landscapes within ones mind ....
Landscape without borders, landscape without the security zone, landscape without line of control....
Security within a circle zone, the thought of generalization and making of forced ghettos, leading to a claustrophobia of thoughts in real space.
Surrounded by the colonial hangover, within a complexity of zonal borders, the feeling of a loss of identity is immediate. The artist encloses herself with a wall of hangovers, all the conflicts and all the unsecured zonal borders to make it the most secured zone; to be able feel the self built claustrophobic space within the mind.
A beautiful landscape captured between the conflict of structure and security zone, inside a safe zone theory. So either it is a remote bordered landscape or the mega cities security zones, you actually are trapped inside a shower curtain and become a water proofed element, who's identity is always been questioned.
