Dahisar, Mumbai

I have kept my painting studio separate from my sculpture studio, where a lot of dust from the wood work accumulates. I have developed the space architecturally, physically, and at the same time created a camaraderie with many of the people who occupy that space along with me—assistants, carpenters, carvers. It is about comfort, and not just about the physical aspect. In my painting studio, I work alone with inspiring Sufi music playing in the background.
