ART AND DESIGN PHILOSOPHY 

An unplanned journey- an upbringing in the UN International community in war-torn Afghanistan, becoming an Architect, Artist, Fashion and Jewellery designer have been Lakshmi's path into the world of Design. 

Lakshmi's philosophy is to break down communication barriers using a thought process to guide the creation of art as a language of inclusivity, which resonates with people from all walks of life, ethnicities, and beliefs. Her work is an intersection of Art, Science and Technology, interactive, interdisciplinary, and multisensory.
 
Our existence is rooted in the foundations, bricks and mortar of past innovations and discoveries that define our present. Resulting from massive worldwide migrations and the exchange of ideas, humans through the ages have drawn influences from their travels, interactions, and communication reflected in the synchronicity of thoughts, creations, and innovations across geographical regions. Over time, increased interactions have led to complexity, an infinite range of perceptions and belief systems. Deriving the simple from the complex, the links that bind the fabric of humanity, direct the subject matter in Lakshmi's art. These are the existence of the same celestial bodies in our skies, the sun, the Moon and the stars, nature, creation, lifecycles, patterns in the universe and our communication systems of language, symbols and numbers. The desire to communicate and express with words, colour, shape, and form is universal. Art and Design coexist in the spaces we inhabit, the objects we interact with and the stories we tell. These are her sources of inspiration.
