Artist statement: The story behind this work which is a part of the “Ladders and Fences” series – I am riding a magic carpet – see my hair blowing in the wind. I am free and I am enjoying the wind in my face and the sheer joy of flying on a magic carpet. A magic carpet can be anything, life, a dream, a hope, a wish anything. It’s the ride that thrills us. Again the journey. I wrote a poem for this work
