About The Artwork
Once in colonial past and Union Jack above India soared Ambitions ground by father, Tagore on steamer moored To a coastal town in England, named as if the sun lived in this place Moist paddy fields no more, instead ivory seagulls filled this space On shoals of pebbles he sat and knew a barrister he was not Rather to let pen dance on paper, poetry to blot Indian palace, The Royal Pavilion, the prince’s summer residence glowed Burst his heart, memories of home, tears of salty rivers flowed But look what did become of him, a poet to reach summit of the stars And so my baby sister and I decided this pilgrimage would be ours She the flashy illustrator, I the teller of exotic stories Stood in the places he stood, sipping hazaar cups of teas… * hazaar (Urdu/Hindi) = One Hundred Photography & Poem: © Masufa Khatun | Mazzy Khatun Photo Stories | Brighton Pier & Brighton Pavillion | Brighton | East Sussex | UK 2015

An ardent visual storyteller, I am a self-taught photographer who continuously seeks to lens-pen and archive fleeting moments of life's eccentricities, to capture flashes of pictorial haikus encountered in my everyday walkabouts and to use the frame as a time capsule by which to illuminate the often neglected richness, splendour and depth of the story of the individual. My trusty partner in all my ventures is a Panasonic Lumix whom everyone in my circle has come to know as 'Lumiere'. Now you do too! Update 2014! Lumiere has a new buddy: a pretty Leica prime lens otherwise known as 'Laika'!
