About ‘Carpe Diem’
The exhibit titled ‘Carpe Diem’ includes 45 new works from his collection of travel and experiences across the world. Available at variant sizes & prices ranging from 6500 to Rs 40,000, Artfoto brings some of the most affordable modern digital art catered to an age group of 25-45 year olds. Providing an insight into ‘Artfoto’, Ishaan remarks, “Artfoto is a world where the paintbrush is a camera and the photo is created into something as magical as a painting could be. There are no themes or concepts in Artfoto, nor are there explanations of why I capture what I have. It is for those who dream to see beyond the contemporary form of photography.”
About Ishaan Suri-
Ishaan Suri is a self-trained photographer and artist who uses photographs to create images that go beyond conventional photography techniques. He believes that a photograph must talk back to you whether it’s a person or a place.
Born and brought up in New Delhi, Ishaan Suri has a varied educational background. He has done his Bachelors in Business and Economics from the London School of Economics, UK, and has also studied at the University of Rochester, New York. Ishaan is the Director, Corporate Marketing, Interarch Building Products Pvt Ltd, a 500-crore company spread across India with manufacturing facilities at Rudrapur, Kiccha in Uttarakhand, and Sriperembadur in Tamil Nadu.
Self-trained as a photographer, Ishaan Suri grew up to become an artist in pursuit of excellence and innovation. His rendezvous with art started in the late 80’s. He began to take classes in instrumental music, studied western classical music on the piano, and self taught himself to play the guitar. A trained instrumental musician, and passionate about cuisine & culinary, creative design, creation of spaces and ambience, construction of buildings and homes, art flows through every speck of Ishaan’s life and work.
Ishaan’s photography has a marked influence of combining reality with dreams, light with shade and he gives his images a semi-realistic touch staying clear of abstraction or conceptual leanings. As far as the themes of his photography are concerned, he never shoots with a future goal or final concept in mind. He clicks pictures while walking on the streets, travelling with friends, and whenever he feels like capturing the sight in front of his lens.
His photos are self-explanatory about the world he lives in, walks through, and talks to. More on www.ishaansuri.com

Sakhshi returned to New Delhi, India in January 2012 and has hosted three art shows since then. Her inaugural show, ‘Kunstkammer’ or Artroom was inspired by the ‘Cabinets of curiosity’, a method of displaying collecting and displaying objects in the European Renaissance. It brought together on one platform, a host of different artists working with various mediums.
Her second show, ‘Art to a Whole Space’ at the Pllazio hotel in Gurgaon was a synthesis of neoclassical architecture and contemporary art. The interiors were adorned with works of art to complement their different spaces.
Her Third show was titled, "Suggestive Dichotomies" and it showcased works by two artists: Kanchan Chander and Ridhima Sekhri. The theme of the show was inspired by the concept of the inner and outer experience with figures from different cultures, classes, religions and strata’s of life as the artists subject and muse.
