Toys from Heaven
INTRO
Why would we call them toys from heaven? If you have observed closely all the toys that are displayed here have symbolic reference to one god or the another. And every game that we play with these toys has a special connect with the game god used to play. That’s why we call them toys from heaven…

Ever since my childhood days, like every child, toys have fascinated me. But while majority of them gradually overcome this fascination, few like me live with it in their secret world forever. Only a few like me have this rare opportunity to showcase this to the world and tell everyone that toys are something that you can be with forever and still not sound or look childish. Toys are something that helps you be yourself and when you be yourself you look at the world they way you want to.
If you feel there is a kid in me and want to experience my tryst with childhood forever... come join me at the Exhibition.

Aligning with the theme of Ahmadabad International Art Festival of 'Making Sacred', I would like to showcase to everyone the child inside me and tell the world how it helps me in being sacred and live life on my own way. Such is my excitement that I have already started making sketches and all set to give them the final shapes not just in the form of paintings but also in the form of sculptures and live installations.
The image here shows what exactly I want to say. While the world sees it as a monkey it believes itself to be a hanuman. making sacred is your belief in something just the way the monkey has... There are many other such mind-boggling elements and surprises waiting for you to take you back in time...
