HOLI - The Diptych Project |
||
|
Faces are the very first impression we get of anyone. Busy with the intricacies of life they often display a serious outlook. "Holi", the Hindu festival of colors which symbolizes new beginning, change of season, good over evil epitomizes heartfelt joy and happiness. “HOLI – The Diptych Project” is a visual juxtaposition of these diverse explorations through the lens of Holi. It demonstrates that regardless of race, nationality, gender or culture we get transformed into this new avatar with Holi colors. |

An African in America, color has played an important part in my life, in more ways than you expect! I especially like it when there are more
