Portrait of an older man relaxing in Mysore
Unit price per
In this poignant black and white portrait, I capture the essence of an older man taking a moment to rest during work, his scarf wrapped around his head in Mysore, India. The photograph offers a candid and authentic glimpse into the life of an individual who is part of the dynamic and diverse tapestry of Indian culture.
The man's expression, a blend of exhaustion and contentment, draws the viewer in, inviting them to ponder the life and experiences that have shaped his character. The scarf wrapped around his head adds a layer of texture and cultural symbolism to the image, further emphasizing the importance of tradition and heritage in his world.
As an artist, I sought to preserve the profound connection between the subject and his environment, emphasizing the relationship between the man and the vibrant world that surrounds him. This visual narrative offers a window into a world that might otherwise remain unseen, showcasing the beauty and spirit of India's working class.
This photograph serves as a testament to the power of human connection and the beauty of capturing a fleeting moment in time, forever immortalizing the spirit and essence of a person through the art of street photography.
