On 16 December 2007, a powerful IED blast at Pourabi in the countryside of the Northeastern Indian state of Manipur claimed seven lives, injuring more than 30 people. Among them was artist Maikel Meetei whose leg was blown away, leaving him dependent on a prosthetic limb for life. Overcoming his personal tragedy, Maikel resolved to use his paintbrush and canvas to embark on a quest for peace both within and without in the conflict-ridden state.
