The golden cabinet takes us back in time yet the grandeur makes us wonder if our needs are still as rich as back then. We crave for simplicity but choose to get awed by luxury. The clever use of placing the simple china at the top of a grand deck makes us wonder how easily opposites mingle in art as these do in life.

This fresh flower painting makes us wonder if we are truly living life as we should. We think of the past too much and future too deep. But where is the zeal to live in the present? The painting is an amalgamation of bright and dull but finally, we remember it as beautiful. Perhaps that is how life too must be.
