Stemming from the Greek language, Photography literally means 'drawing with light'. With its advent in the 19th century, photography initially served utilitarian purposes, such as documentation and scientific inquiry. However, as its technical capabilities expanded, so too did its artistic potential. The medium has played a profound and multifaceted role in the trajectory of art history, reshaping artistic practices and cultural expressions. Its significance lies in its ability to immortalize moments.
Moments: the quintessence of the human experience.
Each click captures a moment suspended in time, insinuating the photographer's vision and interpretation. Through composition, lighting, and subject matter, photography transforms into a visual dialogue; the camera can become a tool for transcending the boundaries of reality. The significance of these moments.
