    paper Of Deserts & Forts

    Of Deserts & Forts
    This zine is a personal project which is composed of the photographs I captured during a trip to Rajasthan. I loved the symmetry of form, which is present in all the frames.

    The photographs serve as a memoir of the timeless structures of forts, the activities through their windows and graphic symbols like the direction represented by an arrow or the sarcastic warning of “no smoking zone” stated as “lungs at work, don’t smoke”.

    I wanted to play with negative and positive space while working on the layout of this zine. The page with blue, yellow and type represents the azure skies, golden forts and sands of the desert terrain of Rajasthan. The text represents the word ‘Rajasthan’ written in Hindi.

    paper Detachment & Intimacy

    Detachment & Inúimacy is a journey through the landscapes of loneliness, emptiness, and abandonment, tracing their quiet evolution into closeness and connection. In this series, I’ve captured the windows of Dessau, each paired with a word. The progression begins with windows as silent, inanimate witnesses, but gradually, life stirs behind the glass —people appear, and with them, the subtle hum of human activity. Through these frames, the shift from detachment to intimacy unfolds, slowly and softly.
