Sisters of Earth: A veiled connection

‘Sisters of Earth – a veiled connection’ is a poignant portrayal that delves into the deep-rooted connections and shared destinies between India and Britain, depicting them as siblings within the broader human family. Amidst contemporary challenges that seek to sow divisions among racial communities, Patel perceives these as distractions engineered to divert attention from the true perpetrators of colonization. While the faces of power may have changed, the influence of corporate entities and banking institutions endures, often undermining human dignity and unity. Patel advocates for collective exploration of history and connecting the dots to dismantle dystopian structures. In the painting, two young women, one Indian and one British, stand amidst a backdrop rich in symbolism, with a temple representing ancient traditions and a vintage Indian seascape evoking nostalgia for Gujarat's coastline. Through this imagery, Patel encourages viewers to embrace multiculturalism not through forced narratives, but by celebrating our inherent human connections and shared histories, fostering compassion, understanding, and solidarity.

(For humid countries e.g Singapore, C-type Fuji paper is advised as it is does not let moisture and mould through)

Acrylic Screen Prints: Back printed on glossy acrylic glass, and come with a wooden frame. 

Our acrylic prints are no less than 5 mm thick and are finished with a thick black premium foil on the back. This protects the print and gives extra depth and colour brilliance to the end result. In addition, our acrylic prints are made from 70% recycled acrylic.  

HD Metal Prints: Printed on aluminium

HD Metal consists of a thin aluminium plate with a special coating on top. We then use a unique dye sublimation technique to apply the artwork onto it. The result is a phenomenally razor sharp resolution which makes the overall look very contemporary and vibrant.  The material we use is scratch-resistant and waterproof so it can be used for outdoor use too. The high-gloss version is the successor of plexiglass prints however it is lighter, stronger and has a luscious colour spectrum!  HD Metal  beautifully juxtaposes the classic and traditional with state of the art technology,  resulting in frameless, shiny Art that looks timeless as it 'floats' off the wall.

Both Acrylic and Metal Prints are always supplied with a free prefitted hanging system with spacer, so ready to hang immediately.  All you need is a screw in the wall, and they will hang firm and flat against the wall.
