The term ‘Yama’ derived from Sanskrit, embodies the concept of restraint and self control.
This creation mirrors the delicate interplay between command and its absence.
Graduating colours akin to an arching trajectory in each printed layer delve into the realm of serendipity, but remain anchored by the tri-tiered structure and foundational RGB hues.
Some instances commence with Yellow and journey towards Red throughout a single layer's impression, the culmination yielding unforeseen and exhilarating outcomes.

This evolving series of recurring visual motifs combines influences from the geometric intricacies of tile craftsmanship, the distinct work of Victor Vaserely and the ephemeral landscape of our inner eyelids.
