Image Statement: As an immigrant fiber artist from India, my work is constantly informed by my existence between the two cultures, woven by the threads of transcending memories, nostalgia, and cultural identity. Most often, I find myself drawn to my roots, exploring the complexity of migration, belonging, and emotions that emerge from those feelings. Lot of times the interpretations remain deeply personal and ambiguous. This piece felt like weaving a page from one of my most intimate journals. I feel I have a lot more to express in these troubled times and they will probably show up in different forms.
