I am pleased to announce that two of my photographs, “Bride and Bride” and “Freedom Colour,” have been chosen to be exhibited at The Femail Project exhibition in Birmingham, UK. This is the first time that my photographs are being exhibited in an art gallery and that’s why I am sort of over the moon.
About the photographs:
1. Bride and Bride

Bride and Bride, Toronto Pride Parade, 2010.
Taken at the 2010 Pride Parade in Toronto, “Bride and Bride” represents the freedom to marry the one you love, and the ability to celebrate that freedom. To me, this picture undermines the norm of compulsory heterosexuality; it embodies the idea that love does not need to be confined within patriarchal norms.
2. Freedom Colour

Freedom Colour, Kolkata, March 2012.
Taken in Kolkata, India, in 2012, this photo represents the Hindu festival of Colours (or, “Holi”) where “play” using colours allows for a freedom of transgression between caste and class lines in India.
