Who am I? #56
The Paradox of I and me.
Wood Mosaic/ Sculpture, 37 X 37 Inches, 2022 Sureel Kumar
Who am I? I really don't know. I have got a name, a religion by birth, a certain face, a certain profession, a certain personality, a certain body type, a certain mindset and so on...But I feel that all these qualities are just accidental. And surely, I am more than that. But who? If I bring my attention towards myself, I feel there is someone in me whom I am unable to figure out. A calm watcher.
These are the feelings that I have tried to express through this artwork "Who am I? The Paradox of I and me". Everything is made up of almost same stuff but still there is an enormous difference and no difference at the same time. Same pine wood. On the left side depicted as "I" and on the right side is a half Buddha figure depicted as "me, the watcher in me" (Buddha as half, because it's unfathomable). Who is the watcher that watches everything in me? Who am I?
