Kunal Basu & Kushal Ray
8000 photographs, all of them shot inside a 12 room house with 10 residents. These aren't impersonal records, but the result of a real life journey through complex terrains of intimacies. In photographing the office goers, the unemployed, the petty clerks, the retirees, the ageing and the unglamorous, Kushal Ray announces his loyalty towards those who've lost out in the race for success, for whom life must and does go on without unnecessary pathos. Poised between fiction and facts Kunal Basu's narrative brings to life the remarkable world of the photographer and the photographed.Published by Niyogi Books, India in 2011
