About prakhartripathi
I started photography when i was 14. The curiosity to know different cultures and be at different places have always been there since my childhood days. I am alive when I travel. Camera became a companion that lived my vision and thus, photography became a medium to keep safe my experiences and memories.. There is a story, an emotion, an expression in everything around us, which i want to show to the world. What matters to me is the story, the emotion, the expression in things around us, and that is what I try to bring out through my work for the world to see. For me, photography is not about wandering and using my camera to click what pleases the eyes, it is deeper than that. It’s about getting to know the story behind it. I want to know the subject, understand their feelings, the reason for it being that way. The interaction with subject, the general idea of its feelings and emotion, coming in harmony with the subject, that is must and not just using your camera. Making the subject comfortable and helping in conveying the story in a closer to real life frame. I travel alone to understand the different symphonies of life. Solo travelling has so much to offer. I get closer to my surrounding and to myself, with a better understanding of what those little unturned stones hold, those unheard songs sing about and where those unheard legends and folk lie. . Travelling is life for me. Don’t you want to be around people who share same interests, hobbies or passion? That’s what I get from travelling. Travelling talks, gossips, experience. Travel for me is exploration, of being able to follow one’s curiosity to continually learn and question. Travel is about going to a place and having all your assumptions and what you thought you knew of the world turned completely upside down. It’s about finding connections and similarities in places and people that you originally thought were so different. Travel is about doing things that scare you, talking with strangers, getting to the top of a mountain that looked insurmountable. It’s about breaking down fears and realizing what is possible. All these things excite me and make me travel more.
