Lothal Portrait (Dockside), 2007
↓ additional info
In Lothal, a 5,000-year old archeological site in western India I made photographs of present day visitors and locals and then combined these with older photographs of natives posed at the same location. I like the contrast between the pristine archeological photographs and the creased and handled quality of my portraits, and I take issue with the documentary conventions of using people as a measure, to give scale - "he is a mere accessory, just so many feet of bone and muscle."
