Colors through your eyes
The whims and fancy of Amubi. I let him play knowing the woman could be shredded into pieces.
Colors through your eyes How would I know of the beauty of the vibrant green color of the bamboo leaves ? How would I know of the beautiful rich saffron color soil of the hill ? How would I know the beauty of the golden sun as it rises and sets? How would I know the beauty of flowers with colors ? I am color blind, I know “beautiful” and “colors” through your eyes and words, Otherwise it’s a mere black and white sight.

“GW Parkway da Emagi waree” (My Mother’s story riding through GW Parkway), an attempt to capture the view of GW Parkway, Washington DC where I have heard many tales from my mother over the phone. I was so inspired and learnt so much meeting Pabung RK Ranendrajit and Emaibem in Manipur. And I gave this painting to them.

I seeked your protection,
Only to be left damaged and faceless.
