On 21st June 2010, Anne Bonneau of Radio and Television France and myself visited Antonio E Costa and Tanya Mendonca at their lovely house in Moira, Goa. Antonio showed me his studio and his rare B&W prints of Ernesto "Che" Guevara and Marylin Monroe he had purchased from a photographer in Mexico. Antonio spoke to me at length about his work. We had the most amazing conversation over a cup of coffee and Tanya's heavenly freshly baked pastries. We spoke about about life, art, and shamanism
I made this portrait of Antonio, I think the photograph speaks a great deal of what I felt from meeting the great artist.
