Artist Statement


My art practice is based on a community who works for their ends meet. They are mostly coming from rural areas to cities with a dream of better life and struggles with situations but in reality, most of them barely make ends meet. Most of them does not have roofs over their head and sleep at footpath, bus stop, under the bridges etc. 


As an Artist, I always observe closely at my surroundings and talk to them, try to understand their lifestyle, capture the moments and try to create a visual narrative which is a layer of our society. I am using photography as a tool to create visual dialogue.
