Ep 2: The Alkazi Foundation for the Arts' Photobook Grantees 2020

Photographer Hari Katragadda & writer/editor Shweta Upadhyay were awarded The Alkazi Foundation for the Arts' Photobook Grant 2020 for their collaboration 'I'll be looking at the moon, but I'll be seeing you'. In this episode, we talk about this award-winning work through its makers' process and influences and the contemporary status of the photobook in India, in the wake of Dayanita Singh's pioneering practice. The route we take winds through discussions of ancient poetry, avant-garde cinema and Gothic marriages.  Click here to access the Image Guide & view the images being discussed in the podcast: https://sites.google.com/view/artalaap-podcast-resources/episode-2.  Credits:  Producer: Tunak Teas  Design & artwork: Mohini Mukherjee  Marketing: Dipalie Mehta  Musical arrangement: Jayant Parashar  Images: Harikrishna Katragadda & Shweta Upadhyay  Additional support: Kanishka Sharma, Amy Goldstone-Sharma, Raghav Sagar, Shalmoli Halder, Arunima Nair  Dedicated to little Bodhi, who'll hear his aunt before he sees her.  Audio courtesy: Vernouillet by Blue Dot Sessions [CC BY-NC 4.0] References:  Lavinia Greenlaw, 'The Vast Extent: On Seeing And Not Seeing Further', The White Review, February 2019.
