Yama

  • The term ‘Yama,’ derived from Sanskrit, embodies the principles of restraint and self-control, forming the conceptual foundation of this body of work. Through graduating colours that arc across each printed layer, the pieces explore the realm of serendipity, while remaining anchored in the tri-tiered RGB hues—a deliberate subversion of the conventional CMYK model within printmaking.

    Each layer, at times beginning with Yellow and transitioning toward Red, unfolds in a journey of unexpected outcomes. These prints, grouped into sets of four, highlight subtle dissimilarities, finding beauty in their tile-like repetition and nuanced differences. The act of grouping amplifies the unique character of each piece, celebrating the quiet variations that emerge in real time.

    A delicate, dotted pattern courses through the works, echoing the retinal rods and cones of the human eye. This pixel-like motif introduces a sense of visual white noise, reminiscent of the analogue static seen in the spaces between television channels. This texture invites the viewer into a meditative state, where the boundary between perception and abstraction begins to blur.

    Engaging with themes of reproduction and digital imagery, these works critique the omnipresent “box in our pockets” (our mobile phones) and the relentless barrage of flashing visuals that overstimulate our senses. By contrast, these prints offer a pause, a moment of stillness that reconnects us to the physical and the tactile.

    Emerging from the conceptual framework of the ‘Breathing Series’ paintings, this collection extends its metaphorical exploration of the mind’s eye—a subconscious canvas. When we close our eyes, we enter a sanctuary, a personal refuge from the overwhelming terrors of modern screen time. These works channel a collective energy, a universal flow—whether understood as ‘Logos,’ wavelengths in quantum mechanics, or the shared rhythm of human experience. They invite the viewer to reflect on the interplay between control and surrender, chaos and harmony, in both the visual and the philosophical realms.
