Work

Ongoing documentary series, city essays, and images from Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Armenia, India, and beyond.

Kolkata, India, 2026

A documentary photography series shot in Kolkata, India. Through street-level observations of daily life, weathered walls, temple shrines, ghats and passing figures, the series explores how colour shapes one of the world's most densely layered cities. The work is a slow, attentive portrait of a city and the quiet dignity of ordinary living.

Kolkata, India, 2026

The series documents the daily training rituals of pehlwani wrestlers — sparring in earthen pits, exercising with jori and mugdals, and conditioning on open-air bars beneath banyan trees. This is traditional kushti wrestling ground - Siyaram Akhara Bayam Samity on the banks of the Hooghly River near Howrah Bridge.

Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, 2025

Heritage Nights is a documentary photography series shot at twilight across Kazakhstan’s and Uzbekistan's Silk Road cities, including Samarkand, Bukhara, and Turkestan. The images capture UNESCO-listed monuments, ancient fortresses, and living craft workshops during the blue hour, when the cool of the evening unfolds.

Armenia, 2025

This is a documentary photography series made in the highland villages and gorge towns of Armenia in autumn 2025. Spanning the Ararat plain, the Debed canyon, and the high pastures of the Syunik and Gegharkunik regions, the work records the rhythms, textures, and quiet contradictions of life in one of the Caucasus's most ancient and least-photographed landscapes.

An adult man with a shotgun and a young boy are outdoors in a mountainous landscape. The man is holding the shotgun, and the boy is standing with hands in his pockets, both looking at each other. A dog is partially visible near the man. The scene appears to be during the daytime with a backdrop of tall mountains and sparse vegetation.

Armenia, 2025

Sacred Stone sits between fine-art photography and heritage documentation. This series explores Armenian cave churches, chapels, icons, stone carvings, and sacred interiors shaped by light, devotion, and time.

Kolkata, India, 2026

The series explores the city's gym culture across its full spectrum — from modern fitness centres with mirrored walls and green turf to decades-old neighbourhood gyms where rusted iron weights rest on bare concrete and a shrine sits just beyond the doorframe. Moving between bright commercial spaces and deeply atmospheric heritage training halls, the images reveal a physical culture shaped by community, tradition and quiet daily devotion.
