Earlier this March, I had the incredible honour of exhibiting my PlatiGleam paintings at a solo show in Nepal's premium art museum - the Nepal Art Council, in Kathmandu. I also gave this artist's talk on 24th of March 2024.

In Part 2 of this talk, I delved into covid and the acceleration of a mental health crisis, especially in westernized countries. I also mention the use of all blue pigments in my Blue Series paintings. I ended up discussing the deliberate destruction of the Academic tradition in the visual arts.

Special thanks to Pratima Pande and to Prithivi Pande for making this happen. And Sophia L. Pandé for the great conversations! And to Museu Nacional de Arte Contemporânea, Museu Nacional Soares dos Reis and Mosteiro da Batalha for being the home of these artistic projects. Thank you Emília Ferreira, António Ponte and Joaquim Ruivo for supporting these researches, during their early inception.

And to filmmakers Lee Fuzeta, Yuri Chernikov, Gianmarco Donaggio, Joy Mridha, Badhon Kumar and NIkesh Invincible for translating my art into the domain of cinema.
