Inspiration for This Work
I'm interested in the practices and doctrines of different religions and how it dictates every sphere of life. It is natural for mankind to yearn for a spiritual fulfilment and yet there are so many misunderstandings between cultures that often lead to prejudices. My work suggests that while our spiritual journeys manifest in different ways, the intent is ultimately the same: to understand our purpose and the world in which we live in.
