Capturing fleeting experiences

ISSUE: 133

Describe your style.

IB: For me, the style would be the way I perceive and reflect the world around me. And I like to think that it’s something dynamic but also fleeting; not static or absolute. The way we see the world will surely evolve and grow with us, as we go through our life’s journey. So, I try not to get caught up thinking about having a style.

Tell us about your creative pursuits during the recent lockdowns.

IB: The lockdown allowed for a slower and more natural pace, which was conducive to a sincere exploration of creative and meaningful projects. It brought forth an opportunity for me to spend time revisiting and analyzing my work. Like everyone else, I found myself with ample time but limited resources; feeling confined and vulnerable. I was fortunate enough to be with my family at a time like this. Apart from photographing whatever I could find in our garden, I started creating images with my family members, especially my mother. This opened doors to a completely new world for me. My mother has always been an integral part of my life and it’s gratifying to have her now become an equally important part of my work. 

Share your aspirations. 

IB: The dream is to keep creating and connecting with more like-minded, passionate and creative individuals. I don’t have any long term dreams as such, but I would like to travel more and explore different cultures through my work. I am working on some really special projects at the moment, but I can’t share details yet.
