Lady (Forget Me) Knot, 2011 - 2011

details about this work


Raksha Patel is based in London


I explore the materials of the body in relation to landscape; my recent work constructs images of the internal components of the body and translating them into what we see outside of ourselves in the environment. These ideas have derived from exploring beliefs from the East and in particular investigating notions of the impermanent nature of the body.
