'My work is about where I come from, but at the same time the expansion of the art world means that to a certain extent, everything is shrinking together, and you have to be aware of international discourse in your work.'(The artist cited in 'Subodh Gupta: Cow Dung, Curry Pots, and a Hungry God ' in http://www.artnews.com/issues/)
