Photographer’s Note: Kolkata, the capital of West Bengal and the cultural hub of India, is a city that never ceases to amaze and inspire. The city is a melting pot of history, culture, art, and religion, where the old and the new, the rich and the poor, the sacred and the secular coexist in a strange juxtaposition of vibrant chaos and harmony. The photographs, devoid of colour makes the city so compelling: the shapes, the textures, the patterns, the shadows, and the light. It also creates a sense of nostalgia and timelessness, evoking the memories and emotions of the past.
