I AM NOT A PAINTER. I AM A GRAPHIC ARTIST. I LIKE TO EXPERIMENT. I LIKE TO PLAY. I LIKE TO DISREGARD RULES (ESPECIALLY SOCIAL RULES). I LIKE HIDDEN MESSAGES. I LIKE BIG. I LIKE TO CUT PAPER AND DECONSTRUCT MATERIALS WHICH I USE TO RECONSTRUCT IDEAS AND ART. I LIKE TO COLOUR MANICALLY, IT SOOTHES ME. I LIKE PENS, NOT PAINT. I LIKE TO STAND IN FRONT OF PROJECTORS. I LIKE JUNK. I LOVE TO CREATE CHAOS. I USE LINES AND SYMMETRY TO GIVE ORDER. I ADD PATTERNS FOR MOVEMENT. I LIKE TO USE ICONS THAT INSPIRE ME.

I LIKE TO USE LOTS OF NEW MEDIA AND TECHNOLOGIES - XRAYS, PHOTOSHOP, FRACTALS, DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPHS, PROJECTORS, COMMERCIAL PACKAGING, INTERNET, TRANSPARENCIES WITH GLASS PAINT, REFLECTIVE MATERIALS, HOLOGRAPHIC PAPER, HANDMADE PAPER, ACRYLIC PLEXIGLASS. WITH THESE MATERIALS, I CREATE LARGE COLLAGES OF ALL THE CRAZY & BEAUTIFUL EXPERIENCES IN MY LIFE.

THESE WORKS TITLED UNDER THE BANNER OF – DIFFERENT FACES OF S.AYESHA, IS A CONTINUATION TO A SOLO SHOW THAT WAS HELD IN NEW DELHI IN MAY 2007. THE CONTENT OF THE WORK – IS ABOUT ME – MY FEELINGS, DREAMS, IDEAS, FANTASIES AND EXPERIENCES THAT I HAVE HAD. LIKE A PERSONAL DIARY, MY WORK REFLECTS THE DIFFERENT ASPECTS OF MY LIFE AND THE DIFFERENT FACES I CARRY. IN ESSENCE, THESE ARE ALL SELF PORTRAITS.
