DIS LOCATION 4 (LAKSHAMI CHOWK) | 2007

C PRINT + DIASEC | 95 X 125 INCHES

Duality is experienced on many levels, including political, social, cultural, geographical and aesthetic; as in this digital print, the present-day picture of a colonial building is created with small photographs of the same site, (Lakshami Chowk in Lahore), taken at every second for twenty-four hours of a day. What looks like the picture postcard or an old photograph at one instant, in reality, is an assemblage of the same views in multiple times. So while critiquing the nostalgic modes of representation, the work is a comment upon the custom of seeing a culture by another.
