JCAM, Vol.3, No.1
Public art: Each work is different. Sometimes works are colorful, making us jolly, and sometimes they are black and white, revealing the gloominess that lurks within the deepest and darkest corners of our society and ourselves.
Public art: It is about my respect of the nature of each situation, because I am using different spaces — just as I find them in each place. Public art: With my work, it is not a permanent thing, it is only for the time being. It is there and then it is gone, but not from the memory of those who witness it. Public art: It has nothing to do with conventional art market. It is in part about my enjoyment of interacting with common people of each location that bring all participants joy and begins conversations about art. Public art: I am living in a society that is huge. It is perhaps impossible to change it much. Even so, it is a way to do something positive for my society. Public art: As a native Indian I have a tremendous positive message to carry through my public art to other Indians about our daily life, our emotions, our dreams, our spirituals and our ritual sensations and traditions.
Public art: As an artist I am not going to give a direct message to the audience. For me public art is a kind of symbolical presentation that is most effective when accomplished in a simple way that is most effective for each space in which it is presented. Public art: I personally believe that every creative person must find a challenging way of working that will do something of value both for himself and his neighbor. Public art: I think successful public art is unconventional. It does not come out from a regular box like some product from the store. This kind of approach is what we used to call contemporary art practice. Public art: As I am an Indian and live in that society my biggest possibility for creative practice is to do public art. Lots of possibilities are easily available here. We have many different kinds of natural space, traditional architecture, and a huge population. I will never run out of places to work or people to interact with. Public art: Most of all I simply love to do experiments with different ways of creating imagery and creating novel installations in public places. I do believe in my ability to do this, and I enjoy doing it too. Public art: I am going to continue working in public locations, in working in various ways, while always thinking about how I can use artistic factors such as space, surface, and media. I will carefully consider such things while presenting my commentary on important contemporary subjects and topics of interest to me.”
