Puneeta Mittal

Out of displacement comes the experience of relocation and finding another language. The use of material, cold pressed steel, beyond my understanding not only displaces but forces me to learn a new language. The pods are an attempt to fold, weld, form, and work with metal both hard and cold, unlike soft and tactile clay used for creating the seeds.
As an artist, I have always aspired to challenge and be challenged, to inspire and be inspired, and to feel the passion to create a response to what I see, hear, touch, smell, and taste. The material is merely a vehicle to facilitate this expression. To quote Dalai Lama—"Within the seed of the cause of events is the seed for their cessation and disintegration." – P.M.
