CASSAVA GARDEN BATIK

This new work titled CASSAVA GARDEN (2013) is the first in a series where I'm investigating the effect of sunlight on various kinds of vegetation. I've lately been intrigued by the shadows cast as a result of sunlight shining on different parts of trees and from this I saw a rare batik opportunity to do works that show these effects. In this particular batik, this inspiration is right in my garden, so does many of my next projects. I saw another scene from the taxi park 

where passengers were going up and down a flight of stairs to and from the park. I took a photograph and was fascinated by the shadows cast on the steps as people moved on them. This is my next project that I'm currently working on..
