More accessible than music, more resonant than literature, more mysterious than film – photography is the essence of the pure joy to be found in expression…
I joined photography design at NID to channel my passion and curiosity for the world around me. From architecture to photography, the fire that keeps me going is my urge to create. To me photography is a means of self-expression, a depiction of life as my reality. Because no one sees things in quite the same way, it is my vision, expressed. I choose to photograph subjects that I feel deeply about, like music, nature conservation, dance, architecture, people…because I believe that you are what you feel and you can only make a difference if you truly care.
My final project is one that touched me; one that moved me to act- a documentary on the vanishing way of life of the Van Gujjar semi-nomadic tribe. The projects featured here are - 'Way of life', 'Metamorphosis', 'Forest'.
