A solitary figure moves through a rain-drenched street, umbrella held against the downpour. Everything is dissolved by water — the buildings, the parked car, the Tamil shopfronts — leaving only movement and atmosphere. Painted entirely wet-on-wet, allowing the watercolour to find its own forms within the composition. A painting about being alone in a crowd, about the particular quiet that rain brings to a busy street
