Photography by Gautam Narang
In India, I saw uncensored reality, real poverty, real madness, not the sanitised cleaned up, behind closed doors society of Britain. But why are these themes so interesting to me? Because they are more real, everyone identifies with the underdog, not many can identify with the entrenched falsity of the ruling classes.
This is where photography is different, it is designed to raise questions rather than answers, but the result is that artists will remain unfulfilled, because in their quest for answers, they simply raise more questions.
Don’t take anything on face value, everything can be doctored even these words. Read them once, forget them, and go make your own art.
