When Anu and Vani wanted me to do a series of illustrations on ‘Creation’ for the anniversary issue, I was tempted to do something wacky and nonsensical. We take art, and life, too seriously. Creation, somehow forcefully, has begun to need justification. Art is a vent of frustration, of emotion. And mostly our emotions are so muddled and layered, we barely realize what prompted a particular art to emerge. So like Oscar Wilde says in his preface to The Picture of Dorian Gray, “All art is quite useless.”
