Look at the image again. What are your initial reactions? Do you find it appealing, provocative, strange?

What do you think about: the use of colour; contrast (subject, text etc.); language; placement of words?

What are the artist's possible aims or intentions?

Kiran Chandra

"The interconnectedness of systems: of language, ecology, politics and art.

The directness of drawing: as a way of looking, perceiving, seeing and thinking.  

The language of the natural world. 

I am interested in language, and multiple points of imparting and receiving knowledge.

I am interested in language: textual and concrete.
" - Kiran Chandra
