“Too busy to see” November, 2019
(Fragments of my studio practice over the last 7 years, found discarded hessian sacks, cement bags and fabrics, indigo dyed, acrylic paint stitched and glued together. )

The work ‘Too busy to see.’ 2019 was up for a week, made and created very much from the opportunities that presented themselves throughout my time in India. Working together with local artisans at times, I constructed the work in 3 days in Carpark space in Mumbai. It was a monumental project to achieve for the timeline we had and the work looks to embody the collective nature of the relationships formed and the opportunities discovered when we are open to look.
