In my journey from childhood to adulthood, the color maroon has held a mysterious and profound significance in my life. Its allure transcends mere aesthetics, hinting at a deeper connection that resonates with my being on a spiritual, historical, and cultural level. Though not always visibly present in my attire, maroon has quietly woven itself into the fabric of my identity, becoming an unspoken emblem of my existence and freedom in this human experience.

Maroon is not just a color for me. it aligns as portal to a realm where personal history, cultural heritage, and artistic expression converge. This exhibition serves as a visual exploration of the profound influence that a seemingly simple hue can wield over one's sense of self and reality, inviting viewers to join me on a journey of discovery and introspection through the captivating lens of this powerful hue.
