Through my practice I try to tell the stories which shaped my experiences and connect my past with my present. I want to create a free, fearless state where I am more than my body, my identity, my genter, my race and every possible thing that defines me in this society. I want to unmask that layer and just want to be the 'I" the eternal with nature. My images come from my family album, my imagination, and the stories I have heard from my grandparents. They all play hide and seek in my mind. Simetimes if I am aware of where they are, I can catchem and put them on paper and sometimes they hide and I have to look for them again. - Madhurima Ganguly
