APPLICANT NAME: Patel, Sejal
FIELD OF STUDY: Photography
COUNTRY: India
PROJECT TITLE: The British left, but left who behind?
ABSTRACT OF PROPOSAL: The primary goal of this project is to conduct research and document the remnants of the British Empire, specifically in and around Ahmedabad, Gujarat. I am interested in reevaluating India’s past from a contemporary perspective: what was the ideal vision of post-independence Ahmedabad and how is it relevant to the present state of the city? I will make photo and video portraits of veterans of the independence struggle, as well as of the city itself.
FINGERS CROSSED till February, maybe March, or perhaps April 2011.
