Speaking about this body of work, artist Parag Tandel has said, "The materials and forms of everyday symbols I grew up with for the most part, manifest in my work. My work stems from the idea of using found objects, to reuse them, and then construct fresh entities. I inquire into the history as well as contemporary times of my community. I have grown up listening to chronicles of the past, which, for me, are almost fable-like and imaginative; I sense after years these fables are beginning to mount into myth, they are transforming into layers similar to the residue structures in our minds. For me, it is not only about breaking into a meticulous spot in my inventive practice but also using a method that fills in the gap."
