  • I found myself in Guwahati2015

    Series of 45 photographs
    inkjet prints, b/w & color
    variable dimensions

    Produced in Guwahati, the largest metropolitan area in Northeast India, the series “I found myself in Guwahati” was created in response to an invitation from Microclima (Venice, Italy).
    Situated on the southern bank of the Brahmaputra river, this city is a hub for both commerce and education and is currently one of the fastest-growing cities in India. Guwahati boasts a diverse population, made up of people from various ethnic and religious backgrounds.
    As Western tourism has yet to impact the region, I was able to have an unfiltered experience of the city’s dynamics and embark on a spontaneous exploration without predetermined themes or cultural expressions in mind. Despite this, certain themes, such as festive events, the allure of animals, and overlooked details, recur throughout the series.
