ALENNOTT
A name and a symbol. One is who I am; the other is where I am going.

Living with a non-Indian name in an Indian life was my first ritual. Through art, I learned that this was not a problem to be solved, but a practice to be lived. I moved through the convergence of traditions — religious, political, and cultural — until I arrived at my symbol. It is the centre from which I re-establish my relations with life.

My work is a change of skin. It is life writing its own manuscript through me. When I moved beyond my name, I found a deeper synchronicity with the void in the radical abstraction of the Black Square — a space where words become truth. In that dark silence, my identity became a symbol — a bridge where dualities meet, giving form to what resists visibility.

My name is a home beyond nationality.
