One of the few digitally altered images in the project. 'Portrait of Time' acts as a sort of post-apocalyptic scenario to poetically depict the damages of our colonial history. It is subtle, yet attempts to gain some sort of stopping power. Growing up the damages of our colonial past was never paid too much attention to, atleast that was the case in my surroundings. There was always an infatuation with the west and the United Kingdom in specific. The past seemed to be sped fast, however with the rise of the right wing government in India since 2014, the rise of nationalism and the term colonialism was brought up at many instances. Repeating Patterns, subtly appeared ; manufactured lies rooted in demolished landscapes were brought to the foreground.
