As a deep-rooted Kolkatan and student of
architecture, my senses have always cherished
the city. Here, architecture follows no specific
pattern, epitomical of a mixed medium form.
Once established as a British capital, and being
an economic hub of commerce, Kolkata has a rich
history of bringing together an eclectic mix of
cultures. Every building has its own character. Subtle
details depict an array of emotions: clamoring
hope, drives of passion, even assemblages of agony.
That’s what I try to capture within each frame as I
feel them pulsing in my blood, the expansive history
and heritage embedded within these marvelous
buildings.
