About the work

This drawing is about my time spent in Japan on a residency 10 years back.
The memories of Moya Hills in Aomori came alive as I was drawing. Thinking of the mountains in Aomori, the forest, the mist and the rains … The residency was in a forest in an interesting building built by Tadao Ando. This was a very special time for me.
