                          The composition is formulated by the process subtraction thereby accentuating key aspects that then
                          create a new narrative of relationships. This form of approach focuses and hence brings out what would

                          be lost or diminished in the overall setting , and initial view. The painting or picture plane is sub-divided through
                          inter-weaving of applied colour fields that provide a sense of various depths of field each dissolving into the other
                          through adjacent boundaries  or superposition of layers. The juxtaposition of the ornamental clock and the

                          Figure of Venus , period illustration of ancient ruins being viewed and spray of flowers form a narrative of
                          relative time.
