About the art
Artist statement
KUTHO takes inspiration from a Burmese concept of merit. A common ritual undertaken by Burmese Buddhists is to cover their relics with gold leaves. Leaving a gold mark is exclusive to male devotees for merit-making towards better karma. Women, in the guise of an impure status, are forbidden to approach. The series talks about Power associated with Religion and the relationship between the visible / not visible, cult/occult, and parallels universes.
