Event Description : EXHIBITION "Bhutan Echoes" a solo show of evocative black and white photographs of Bhutan, taken over a decade ago by Serena Chopra.
Bhutan Echoes is a solo exhibition of black and white photographs by the Delhi-based photographer, Serena Chopra. Serena made several trips to Bhutan over a period of twelve years and travelled into the interiors to document the unique landscape and culture. Her evocative photographs capture everyday life, from the bustling modern capital, Thimphu, to remote regions where the traditional ways of life are frozen in time.
Alongside the exhibition, Tasveer has released a new publication with exquisitely rendered reproductions of all the photographs in the show and an original essay by Manu S. Pillai. The book is available at Bikaner House and online at the Tasveer Bookstore: www.tasveerbookstore.com
About the artist : Serena Chopra is a Delhi-based photographer, whose first body of work on Bhutan led in 2007 to solo shows held at New Delhi, New York and Thimphu. A wider selection of her Bhutan work was also later published alongside extracts from her personal journals — as The Ancients (2015) by Academic Foundation. Chopra has since explored the lives and times of resident Tibetan exiles at Majnu ka Tilla in Delhi; and Naga sadhus at the Kumbh Mela in Haridwar and during Shivratri in Varanasi. She has also participated in a photo exhibition at the Bonjour India Festival (2013) and produced a picture notebook, Along the Ganga.
