"Art can present us with a different view, a new perspective, another way of thinking about things. In this series of paintings of Pit Bulls I’m challenging the current-day perception of these dogs. Not by changing their image, but by depicting them close-up, larger than life, and inviting the viewer to question how they see and perceive Pit Bulls."

We speak of the spiritual core of classical Indian dance but it is rare for artists to reach beyond stories with the aspiration of tapping into the cosmic. Kashmir Shaivism expresses a profound non-dualistic understanding of the universe — viewing life as filled with rasa/enjoyment. This philosophy of inclusiveness is the need of the day and its interpretation through Bharatanatyam and Kathak in a production by Anugraham — Classical Art Community called Rango’ntaratma on April 1 at 6:45 pm at Kamani Auditorium was an eye-opener for most.
Rango’ntaratma is the central sutra of the Shiva Sutras which define the inner consciousness of the individual as the performance arena where life is played out. Every individual is an actor who assumes multiple roles in his/her life. Manifesting this in performance has been the driving inspiration behind Kamalini Nagarajan Dutt’s year long creative efforts envisioning the theme and working with four superb dancers to bring to life the concepts of this wonderful sutra — Naada, Bindu, Kalaa and Rasa.
The production reveals the hidden concepts of some of these mythological symbols. The journey begins from the formless and unfolds in various forms accessible to sensory perceptions.
Full disclosure: Kamalini Nagarajan Dutt is my kalyanamitra and I have watched with awe as she has immersed herself into the process of developing the concepts and directing the dancers over many months.

The light shines more when it is hidden. Seeing it from the shadows, the beauty of light can be seen more intensely. Standing under it, we do not think about its meaning, but when we are not under it, when we see it from afar, we realize just how much we desire it.

Self-Love
Question your perception. When you look at yourself in the mirror and cast judgement on yourself, ask yourself, "Is that really what's there or is that what I think I see?" When you're overly critical of yourself, ask yourself, "Is it really that bad or am I looking at it that way?" Self-love is all about looking for the positive and focusing on what's great about you.

ASIS Europe 2019 – From Risk to Resilience
Today’s enterprise is connected, complex and global. Securing innovation and competitive advantage requires simultaneously protecting people, information, products, and property. Rapid, interconnected change, and shifting perceptions of risk and value are key challenges for security practi-tioners. ASIS Europe programme is designed to provide unique insights to help you, your teams and your organisation. We will examine evolving security challenges from the perspective of leaders tasked with protecting their organi-sation’s reputation and most precious assets in a manner that drives business, organisational and cultural goals. | Foto © Charles Batenburg
1. Materials used are my sister, her sketchbook, glass, trees, and buildings
2. I photographed my sister practicing her art wherever she goes throughout the day
3. I knelt on the ground and took a photo sideways of my sister and the sunlight to show the contrast of the hard light. I later made the photo black and white, added a vignette, and increased the contrast
When I was working on the original version of this I discovered the world of digital mirroring. I was playing with a photo of windows in an airport and somehow ended up mirroring the photo, and that's where the fun began. I just recently mirrored one of my old drawings and I thought it would be fun to go back to this one (that inspired my latest addiction: digital mirroring) and mirror it again. I'm not sure which one I like better, but this is definitely a nice twist.
Some time ago, I shot a whole roll using my Mamiya C330 and Mamiya-Sekor 55mm wide-angle lens. Due to a shutter fault (ie, it wasn't opening at all at the time*) the pictures on the entire roll and half of the following roll (until I switched lenses) all turned out identical. Here's an example.
In this particular one, I find it interesting how this spurious feature has had an equalising effect on the different subject matter. The occlusion of any original information about the photograph at the point of taking causes a complete lack of metadata. What we know about a photograph - the extra information outside of the photograph (such as the photographer, the time, the place) - can affect our perception of the photograph itself.
Here, we have a total occlusion of intra information, within the photograph, which in turn prevents us from forming distinct perceptions regarding the way I originally shot these photographs. Even I've completely forgotten what the original subjects were, and when and where they were taken. Thus, I'm finding it quite difficult to sort out which ones are the good ones and which ones aren't quite so good, such is the strong effect of the information occlusion on my perception of the photographs.
