The Fleeting Stillness of Rachna Shukla’s Hindu Photography

THE HINDU

Rachna Shukla's photo.
INDIA---At a point when photography is a most familiar form of art, when every captured image can be given a face lift and perfected, how can one do things differently? Rachna Shukla, in her recent series, has tried this by capturing what she calls fleeting stillness in black and white photographs. There is something that black and white does to movement, releasing the motion and holding on to the calm too. A sky is made satin and a mundane shack sets off a hundred moving images.  [link]
