Wrapped in a daily dialogue between Bijoy and Shinde Mama, the emergence of these works is the circadian diligence of Shinde Mama, who carved his vision and gave it an avatar. A closer look at these stone-carved sculptures reveals their attentiveness and allegiance to their maker. Embalmed in lime and natural pigments like turmeric and indigo, these works exhibit a childlike affinity both share with animals; highlighting a reciprocal relationship of love, trust and healing.
The title appropriates itself from the uninhibited and spontaneous association children make with animal-shaped clouds in the skies, where an honest and meaningful bond finds its culmination in every piece of work.
