Bhram 1 (Pages of the Mind)

This accordion-fold composition turns portraiture into a restless sequence, where figures emerge and recede across panels like fragments of memory stitched together by geometric emblems and charged marks. The limited palette—earthy ochres against stark light—creates a heat-haze intensity, while the jagged symbols and radiating forms press in on the bodies, suggesting identity shaped as much by external codes as by inward feeling. As the eye moves from fold to fold, the work reads like a visual chant: part personal archive, part social diagram, insisting that the self is never singular but assembled through repetition, interruption, and return.
