The shadows say a lot by Kaushik Dolui

This collection consists of images that are straight photography, all works exist in a space between the real and imagined.

This collection consists of images that are straight photography, all works exist in a space between the real and imagined.

Mainly focuses on the idea that each of these images is a creation as much as it is an observation that transcend our normal understanding of reality with a different perspective that can change physical dimension.

Here all the long and short shadows represent a certain character and lastly manifest an idiosyncratic space for the imagination.  This metaphysical space is adapted for the practice of reverence: the creation of meaningful relationships with simple earthy materials, landforms and the sublime
