The titles of these paintings are in kilometers, representing the distances my extended family traveled to find safety ( Karachi to Bombay – 883 km / Karachi to Colombo – 2418 km / Hyderabad to Baroda – 1115 km etc ). Some chose to rebuild their lives in these new locations, while others viewed it as a stepping stone in their journey towards establishing a new home. This particular painting is my father’s journey, from Mumbai to Casablanca, where I was eventually born.
