A quiet shift has taken place. From asking machines if God exists to asking them everything else. Yet even as technology becomes our primary interlocutor, something essential remains unresolved. Faith no longer gathers only in temples; it lingers in small, unmarked gestures, a ribbon tied to a bush, flowers placed on stone, private offerings from a conversation with the self.
This work reflects those moments. Not declarations of belief, but traces of inner dialogue, where the deeper human need is not simply to be answered, but to be understood.
Across the series, the shape of gods evolves: from distant forms scaled like rock climbers ascending the monumental Buddha, to a tattooed Shiva holding vigil over a child, and finally to Hanuman rendered with a pink pacifier, quietly confronting the reality of female infanticide in regions where he is most revered.
In an age where machines can respond but not truly recognize us, these images hold space for what remains profoundly human: the search for meaning beyond information, and the quiet, ongoing act of self-recognition.
