She wrote, “Remembering Mama . . . Sitting here on this serene hillside - she was with me when I was doing up this little studio of mine , patiently sitting, waiting for me to get on with my work. That’s when I’d taken this picture of hers in my favourite black Kinnauri shawl. She’s here, very much here, still, with me, her presence all over this valley . .”
