Let’s talk about the black and white drawing outside of your TV room.

MR. GOYAL It’s by Shantell Martin, a lesbian from London who now lives in New York and is all about Andrew and me. There’s an airplane in here, for example, which represents the years we lived apart while Andrew was working in Atlanta [for Delta Air Lines], and we would fly to see each other.

Then there are the words MOO and YOO, which are our nicknames for each other and stand for “My own and only” and “Your own and only.” Shantell drew this after coming here and getting to know us.

The picture of a woman in a sari looks like a vintage work. Is it?

MR. GOYAL No, it’s a contemporary piece by an American artist, Waswo X. Waswo, who lives and works in Rajasthan [India], which is where we bought it. It’s a photograph painted over, and we were so struck by the juxtaposition of the subject interpreted through a modern lens.

Tell me about the green work near your dining table.

MR. GOYAL We had a big wall to fill and found this work, which we’re very proud of. It’s by Sadie Benning, an American transgender artist who works in many mediums including video, photography and sculpture. They, the pronoun Sadie goes by, have focused on the bright primary colors and created a very amorphous, fluid work. It’s bold and happy.
