Description:

Indian Poet Tagore reflected on the fusion of music and art as one. Silence as empty space.

These etchings demonstrate that ours is not a life governed by our feelings. The human body is also eternal in a crucifixional way: an etched framework far from all the shadows and turmoils of the world.

Musical Composition: Tocata and Fugue in D Minor

'You came down from your throne and stood at my cottage door. You came down and stood at my cottage door. Masters are many in your hall, and songs are sung there at all hours. But the simple carol of this novice struck at your love. One plaintive little strain mingled with the great music of the world, and with a flower for a prize you came down and stopped at my cottage door.
