Grown Ups. Growing Within.
We…who are we? We are two people, the products of our time, basically good, a bit dazed by the happenings around us. We are sensitive souls, a tad more than required maybe, and so we record and register all that is happening around us, the little changes taking place every day, the little movements, our attitudinal shifts at the micro and nano levels. We believe these little changes that take place every single day coalesce together to bring sudden changes, big changes, revolutionary changes…
And how do we register those changes? We see, observe, hear, analyze, put things together, and that’s about it. We often take recourse to art to bring those observations in front of you…through photographs, music, poems, writings and so on, when we find the facts too strange to state. We reveal startling facts and stances through our art that we miss while swallowing our daily dose of living every day.
Here are our little biographies…bio sketches of two grown up men who haven’t stopped growing within.

Abhijit Chakraborty
The essence of Abhijit Chakraborty’s photography is his unpretentious, uncluttered and unostentatious style though the images are powerful to stir myriad hues of emotions and thoughts as one looks at them. The Kolkata based Indian photographer graduated with a bachelor degree from Calcutta University and started his career as a Graphic designer. After spending a decade in his profession, Abhijit started photography. A passionate self taught photographer, Abhijit is a storyteller of canonical traditions, classical in his approach – empathy is what he feels while photographing his subjects.
He was chosen as the best candidate in the Sweden-India Nobel Memorial Week photo competition called “Swedish Innovations – Indian Interpretations” by the Embassy of Sweden in 2012 and the Embassy of Sweden in India sponsored an extensive photo trip for him to Sweden. The photographs taken by him during the trip have been used for promoting Sweden in general and also different facets of Sweden (Sweden as a travel and business destination as well as for strengthening Indo-Swedish relationship by the Government of Sweden and other Swedish institutions). The State Lalit Kala Akademi, Uttar Pradesh (an Indian State) awarded him the AKADEMI AWARD in 2011 for his photo series “Respirando”. He bagged the First Prize in the photo contest “A Day in the Life of India” organized by the Times of India Group in 2011.
His work has been exhibited and published in national level and internationally as well. An occasional writer and lyricist Abhijit believes in Truth, Talent and Realism and has a lot of faith in Love.
