Event Details : 'Chattisgarh : Life | Expressions | Symbolism' an exhibition of photographs by Shashwat Saraf
This exhibition is a journey of discovery of a hidden jewel that is Chattisgarh. It is an exploration of the cultural magnificence of its various tribes as seen in everyday lives of the people. It provides a peep into the unsung life of the people going about their lives tucked away in the middle of glorious forests.
The beauty of incredibly tattooed bodies, the innocence in use of simple objects as fashion accessories, the mystery of untold stories hidden behind the wrinkles of an old woman, the fun of tales hidden behind the laughs of an old man, the sense of pride in use of musical instruments, the pleasure of dancing, the quiet confidence of a child in a school- the photographs succeed in building a warm, personal bond with the lives of strangers caught on camera while at the same time, leaving a thirst to know more!
