“My horses, like lightning, cut across many horizons, hop across spaces,
from the battlefield of Kerbala to Bankura terracotta, from the Chinese
Tse Pei Hung horse to St. Marco’s horse, from the ornate armoured Duldul
to the challenging white of Ashwamedh... the cavalcade of my horse is
multidimensional.”
