My contribution to for where Mostafa Salameh will climb Mount Everest not for personal glory but to carry the dreams of Gaza children to the highest summit. It is a journey from the rubble of war to the roof of the world, from silence to voice, from survival to hope.
All and any proceeds from the artwork will go to this cause.

I find solace in the ordinary. I absolutely treasure everyday materials and repurpose them in my art. Almost all my collage materials are 'out of the ordinary'.
Having navigated anxiety, I have learnt to appreciate the beauty of ordinary days. Being fully present without stress or anxiety, without the need of masking your presence with distractions or pretences is priceless!

In celebration of the Bengali New year which traditionally signifies a fresh start, the agricultural harvest season and the closure of old financial accounts. But for me - new clothes, elaborate Bengali food and beautiful memories of loved ones remind me of my roots this day.
