Between Me and I - Swapan Parekh
Between Me and I
By Swapan Parekh
'Between Me and I' is about Swapan Parekh's journey as a photographer and about objects and ordinary people that have intersected his life, making it extraordinary. His images are not about the moment, but depict work in progress. Almost every picture is connected to another by his set alphabet, his visual language. These photos are taken impromptu, a reflex action taking everything at one go, instinctively grabbing patterns, symbols, choreography, relationships and presented as a complete whole.
