The main words in the center are 'jang' which means 'war', and 'aman'
which means 'peace'. On all four corners I wrote Pakistan and Hindustan
with question marks around them in green and red color. On left and
right extreme sides is the title of the painting 'truth=0' and 'such=0'.
I deliberately made the painting such that no one can judge which side
the work is up. I think it makes it more interesting that no one can
understand who is at war and who is at peace....... Pakistan or Hindustan.???????
I used newspaper cuttings because we think media is the main source
from where we get the truth, and in our country the newspaper is very
powerful media - and so put the newspaper cuttings in a circular path
to make a cycle - endless.
