Preface
'Celestial Dress'
Information technology & electronics media is becoming a super power and is taking control of of our physical, intellectual and emotional responses.
It is churning our cultural identities.
It is influencing our needs and choices.
Through the advertisements and the programmes, TV is researching, recreating and inventing ‘icons’, as representatives of our time, life, desires, dreames, and emotions….
Celebrity hasemerged as the most powerful and influential icon.
One among many type of celebrity icons which occupy TV screens is the super model in various forms of presentation. For many years an ‘Icon’, an elongated human form, most of the times a female, has been evolving to take the centre stage in my creative visual imagery, in my paintings and my sculptures.
This icon resembles super model in content and thought process. Its reach is from earth to heaven. It dwells amidst planets, presuming immortality, surrounded by the ‘assembly line produced products’ icons, the vanishing cohabitants of this planet and the icons which I derive from my cultural inheritance to accomplish my creative visual expression in my painting’.
