Where Clouds Dance and Hearts Entwine (Series)
DESCRIPTION
Nature and Wildlife has always been close to my heart and what could be better than witnessing the majestic creatures in the African savannah under vast open skies. Animals are an indispensable part of the ecosystem. Unfortunately, today, they face an existential threat with increasing habitat destruction and surging human-animal conflict. Using these 5 photographs, some of which are intimate moments, I hope to grab the undivided attention of viewers and hopefully nudge them to appreciate the life that exists out there. I chose to exhibit these moments in monochrome as I believe it to be a very powerful mode of communication. Color is often distracting and when removed from an image, draws the attention of the viewer solely to the subject while also evoking a sense of emotion.
