About the work

View of two young men riding on a motorbike, from Chapter Four of the artist's seven-chapter project A Myth of Two Souls. The two boys, representing Rama and his half-brother Lakshmana from the Ramayana, are parked on the side of a rural road. The young man on the back of the motorbike holds a large grey board that almost completely blocks the driver from view. Buildings, utility poles, and a water tower are interspersed among lush greenery along the side of the road.
