“This is my first residency and like all firsts this too will be a special, cherished memory. Although from Mumbai, I sought a serene place right in the midst of the chaos of the city and Space118 offers just that! I leave my imprints here, first as I take away with me the imprints and lasting impressions Of my time at Space118.
With many thanks to Saloni, Surabhi and the very pleasant caretakers and staff – Adieu”
