sculpture pieces inspired by meat eating plants. Delicate and colorful, these plants are unassuming and yet deadly for their prey! These works are a tribute to the process of evolution. The graphic lines of tattoo art are incorporated into "Elements" such as water and fire to celebrate the imprint of life on this planet much like scraping off the outer layer of skin on one's body to mark it with a statement about the self!
The focus of economic improvement kept local, will create employment, and education for the indigenous people in the Himalayas. Tourism for a major source of revenue , the attraction to these parts may be preserved by allowing the local people to preserve and flourish within their culture.
