Ketaki Sheth

Indian

Ketaki Sheth reveals a purposely composed and unpicturesque snapshot. The negative space created by the scooter frames a crouching woman as she glares with a fierce curiosity, protecting her children behind her. Acting as a barrier, the scooter, the scooter an icon of India as omnipresent as the Ambassador car, separates the foreground from the background, separating the conventional content from the gritty scene of the street.
