I see something, hear something, or read something. I kind of combine different things and yet keep it. I try to get a little bit of humanity in there. The easiest way is humor. I think humor is so important.
Laughter is the shock absorber of life.
A lot of people see Indian work, see humor, and they think you're doing some kind of trickster thing. I really believe in everything I do, the ideas behind it. I'm not trying to fool anybody or anything. The humor is just the way I see the humanity of it. Humor is common within the context of Indian art.
