Artist Notes: My father is ploughing the field. The two houses belong to us. In one house we were staying and the next is my older brothers. My mother is carrying firewood. My younger brother is swimming in the river. The small house belongs to my nephew. That forest belongs to us. Like this we were staying in Bhutan happily, but today we are at refugee camp due to the harassment of Bhutan Government.
