In search of my true self, I have dealt with change in geography, climate, emotions, people, cultures and boundaries. Coming from a philosophical outlook, I find questioning is the best way to find the answer to anything. With an academic background in Philosophy, Communication Studies and Dance I have struggled with finding a voice for myself. Through capturing images over years, I have somewhat been able to connect or express that voice.
Changing the world is a momentous process but what’s more significant is finding the change within. A long journey from India to Canada, experiencing cultural differences from the long lived faces of conservative village housewives to the blend of cultures in Toronto. Portraits of long stories framed in one, to experience the emotions and hardship one goes through. Seeking the core of what makes an individual keep going through monochromatic shades of mood. Channeling inspiration from Bukowski’s words into images. Reality is harsh and living in it, is what the fun is all about. The raw humans of the world have much more to say than what meets the eye.
