ARTIST STATEMENT
My paintings are normally on the themes ‘inclusion, diversity, unity’ based on local inspirations, childhood memories and stories I have heard from my roots. Through my art, my intentions are rooted in promoting harmony, understanding, and acceptance within this modern society. My aim is also to inspire individuals of all age to embrace non-violence, empathy, and bring people together, regardless of their backgrounds, beliefs, or differences.I believe that Art has the capacity to evoke emotions and cultivate empathy. Paintings can definitely tell stories, convey emotions and provoke thought. I invite viewers to reflect on their own beliefs and biases, challenging them to confront prejudice and discrimination and embrace values of tolerance and acceptance for my future exhibitions.With paintings of local Mauritian themes, childhood memories and fantasy spirituality as main subject, I promote and contribute to the cultural diversity of the art world.
