A series of photographs at Iewduh, Shillong
Iewduh is an iconic local market place at the heart of Shillong and is one of the largest and busiest markets in Shillong, where you can get just about everything from vegetables, clothes, spices, fish and livestock, household appliances, market stalls, etc. The marketplace has been financially affected now due to the pandemic, but the government has reopened it again but with healthcare restrictions such as wearing mask and hand sanitisation.
At the beginning, it inspired me to grasp how the crisis is affecting livelihoods and how financially. I tried taking photographs with the camera, then suddenly I turned to the buildings above me and spotted that window which had cobwebs all on it. For years, I was astonished that the window is still not shut. Then I looked around, and I saw those windows as if a new world exists above me. So a photographer has to be, look for things that none other can notice, that are so beautiful. Then the lifeless windows above me pulled my focus down.
