In Search of New Normal...'
"An image taken in Pushkar during what was to be a memorable trip and the last link with normality before the pandemic took hold. We travelled around India, the days becoming more and more precious as we got the sense of Covid's restrictive net closing in around the world.
The image was finished some months later, while fully in the grasp of a second lockdown. The addition of gold leaf symbolised for me a sense of hope and the spiritual energy with which I will always associate India, and especially Pushkar." - Valda Bailey
Our work and home lives have been forever altered. Our days are jumbled and it seems that no amount of wrangling or reorganisation will restore the status quo. The old maxim 'we cannot stop the waves but we can learn to surf' was never more appropriate. And so this is an image that attempts to embrace the chaos, deal with the uncertainty and face what lies ahead with humour and resilience. It is printed on glass and backed with gold leaf in recognition of the stability and permanence of this most precious of metals.
