ABOUT THE ARTWORK

I was there in 1987. I went on official assignment but used my spare time to learn photography from a Swedish Wildlife Expert, Stephen. Thereafter, a book publisher took my slides and the draft but for nearly 15 years, could not return the slides – unfortunately for me, the company based in London went bankrupt! When I did get back the slides, their condition was not good, to put it mildly. I tried to digitize many but the result was not impressive. There were so many friends who wanted to see what I saw. I just hid my sadness behind a smile. Now, with creative digital manipulations, I have an opportunity to offer prints for your living and work spaces. All photos are taken by me and linked to stories untold. Now at 70, there is nothing else, I believe, I can do. Details are camouflaged and spots and fungi are hidden, inviting the viewer to see a different world of Antarctica through color, absence of colour, shape and expanse. Creativity through modification requires courage – both at the creator and the appreciator level. Such courage, we have learnt leads to styles. So, I tweak the shots to suit the context and so far down the river of time. The Antarctica collection is Limited (can be printed larger than 24x36 inches) and in no more than 5 authenticated copies. For special bulk orders, the original digital file can be sent so that the art collector can print it out in the print medium of his or her choice, at that end. Of course, the sale price will be at least four times higher; but can be negotiated involving Saatchi Art .

I am a seventy three year young at heart retiree civil servant. I have been an ardent observer of the changes that have been taking place in mankind’s exploitative approach to nature and natural resources in the context of social development. I have recorded such attitudinal changes through the medium of still photography spanning over forty eventful years. My wife Gouri, son Soumya, his wife Indrani, my only 17 month old grandchild Ishaan and I are engaged in running a Wilderness Eco-stay () on the outskirts of Bhubaneswar, Odisha, India, touching a 189 km sq Wildlife Sanctuary. Most of my artworks have been 'discovered' within svanir's premises. Hope you will visit us as soon as travel restrictions and post Covid-19 safety issues permit. Please read my Blogs at and Soumya and Indrani's posts in Instagram, Facebook.. I have a collection of nearly a million photos and I am still adding to it. My entry into Saatchi Art will, hopefully, enable me to 'virtually' entire your life space, so to say. I am sure I will make many new friends.
