Series: I am not the whirlwind that surrounds me.

Medium: pencil and watercolour on paper

Dimensions: w 64cm x h 84cm (mounted and framed in white)

Cleansing Heart is about the surreal power of the heart to wash away our traumas, fears and demons. It is also about our ability to clear away the faults, fears and pain of others through our perceptions of them and the colour and love we bring into their lives. Dedicated to a heart that does not know it and is loved with silent white roses; for the happiness it brings.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 Saba Khan
