I have always been interested in realities different from those we are familiar with. I constantly stop to observe society and am attracted by people who emerge from the general pattern. Today, society, political and economic frameworks, solitude in the midst of the chaos of our day and the desire to have everyone fit some standard mould; influence the growth of a younger generation which often finds the answer to the search for itself in not choosing and therefore accepting easier and less-challenging situations. There is also a different reality which must be portrayed.
I started photography with a hope that it will enrich me with the visual training as a significant part of the general preparation of a free, self-reflective person who can participate consciously, appropriately, and fully in contemporary society and can also emphasize value-based teaching, learning, and research that focus on respect for others, respect for oneself, and respect for the process of interacting with others.
Before my passion took me into academic studies in photography I did my graduation in Computer Science and then post graduation in applied remote sensing and Geographic Information Systems from Jadavpur University, Kolkata. I finished MFA (photography) from National Institute of Design, Ahmedabad and University of Creative Arts, Farnham, United Kingdom in 2012. Currently I am pursuing my Phd at Indian Institute of Technology Hyderabad in the field of media culture and anthropology.
