The Third Embrace

photography
I try to synthesise key concepts of the Indian aesthetic philosophy of detached passion in my photography (and in my art in general). Dream, desire, longing, separation, love, lust, death, illusion, obsession, delusion, faith, fate, and liberation — their inherent contradictions and commonalities — are my primary motifs.
