−	आँगन के फर्श पर डेढ़ साल की बच्ची को बैठा आई है.. नीचे को जाती हुवी सीडीयाँ हैं. सीडीयों के पार सड़क. हवा चल रही है, बच्ची के चहरे पर पढ़ती है तो वो साँस ऊपर खींच कर मुस्कुराती है. सड़क पर चलते पगड़ी डाले लोग जिन्हें बच्ची की आँखें काजल से झाँक कर देखती हैं. सड़क वाले बोलते हैं, बातें करते हैं. छोटे चहरे पर सड़क पर उनका यून आकस्मात पढ़ने की खुशी है. फिर, माँ के लौटते कदम, बच्ची उसकी तरफ सर घुमाती है. माँ झुक कर बेटी का चहरा सूती की टोपी के धागों में पकड़ लेती है. बच्ची की आँखें सकपकती है.

 What I missed about my hometown was the charcoal. That made paper of the walls and the ground around me. Limited paper, so I soon learnt to draw well. Hold the coal down on the wall and complete the picture in one stroke. I would do the same on paper, in Dadar, at school, at my work. Everything was precise, it has to be so. It is the virtue of scarcity.
 Like an alphabet leaves an impression on paper, an image must leave an impression on the mind that sees. The wood engraving must be stamped on the soft matter of the human brain. The painter's brush must paint her lines there.
-At the turn of the nineteenth century the Indian market was flooded with images, so many that they were like a parallel world.

-Printing presses proliferated and kept trying to update themselves with new sorceries to draw watching eyes towards the image. Once the eye was absorbed, the image was able to travel the distance into the darkness that lay behind those watching eyes, to become mind, to float there and look back saucily at the torch that was flashed along those labyrinthine corridors from time to time. There was an active move of the world of 'representation' to take over the real, it is a war that continues.
