The meagre materials contrast with the richness suggested in their multiplicity. An almost exalted merging of materials including textile scraps, coloured and dyed paper, sheets of painted paper and bits of labels and fragments torn out of Italian Vogue, perhaps a few seemingly forgotten chalk stumps. Add shellac, coffee grounds, watercolour, and pencil not to mention dusts and other surface dirt. The surface texture of the works is accentuated by the plethora of materials they are created with. At times, the many layers turn into double exposures, where chance has brought forth new orientations as the shadows and contours of the original image persist.
