Photographer :\u00a0Jayanta Guha<\/strong><\/p>\n

Location :\u00a0Complexe CEGERDEV<\/p>\n

Jayanta Guha started taking photographs\u00a0from the age of seven. His\u00a0philosophy as a photographer is\u00a0summed up in his poem \u201cA photographer\u2019s\u00a0dream.\u201d He believes that\u00a0the beauty of art is in the eye of\u00a0the beholder. His exhibitions have\u00a0been supported by organisations\u00a0such as Centre National d\u2019Exposition,\u00a0Mus\u00e9e du Fjord, Alcan Ltd.,\u00a0UNESCO, the city of Montr\u00e9al and\u00a0others. Jayanta Guha\u2019s photographs\u00a0have been exhibited in various\u00a0cities in Canada, India and China\u00a0and his work has been subject to\u00a0documentaries.<\/p>\n

Freeing itself from the yokes of the \u201ccultural revolution\u201d and the\u00a0opening of its borders, it is no longer a secret that the winds of\u00a0change are rapidly changing China.<\/p>\n

Although there is no dearth of photo-essays depicting this\u00a0change, be it in terms of urban development, lifestyle, fashion,\u00a0or transportation systems, we seldom see the lens looking down\u00a0at feet to take notice of an explosion of styles and colours of the\u00a0footwear expressing this new found liberty. Gone are the stereotype\u00a0canvas shoes so prevalent in the aftermath of the austerity of\u00a0the seventies and the early eighties. This is more so the case for\u00a0women\u2019s footwear however styles for male footwear, especially\u00a0for the young, are not far behind.<\/p>\n

Here is a photojournalistic approach with a certain bit of humour\u00a0to depict the change in China seen through their footwear.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
