WORK OF ART

NOLAN: Face, Clouded, Watery







SWALLOW: Skeleton, Climbing, Eternal





PICCININI: Expression, Inquisitive, Frightened

TURTLE

I find the turtle a very beautiful and affectionate animal. It has detailed pattern and is absolutely a joy to stare at. Its uniqueness, other than popping into its shell, is to stretch like a ballet dancer with its arms and legs spread in the air and balancing its weight on its belly.

THE CAPITAL COMPLEX

The Capital Complex, locally known as the Sangshad Bhaban is the parliament of Bangladesh. It was designed by Louis I Kahn. Since childhood, I have admired this building for the feeling of vastness of space that it gives. Its geometrical shapes inside, allow natural light to come in from different angles and its natural concrete finish allows it to blend with the surrounding. This building has been my inspiration to study architecture, not only because I find it aesthetically beautiful but also because it is very practical, functional and successfully used for its purpose.

LINES OF AGE

I find this charcoal work one of the most interesting from all my works as the expression on the woman's face shows how a person becomes humble, helpless and tolerant as old age brings her closer to death. It's almost like she had thought of life to be completely different than it turned out to be and each wrinkle on her face represents her experiences of life.
