"The Bedroom Diary" is a cultural study between the two versatile contrasts of the American and Indian cultures and the most secret place in a person's life: their bedroom. It is a documentary of people and how they live their life in their culture with insight in their bedrooms, with intricate experiences through time and with life’s idiosyncrasies. This study has two chapters, the first is for the United States and second is for my native country, India.
My interest in this series comes from the inception of photography. Daytime, the deadlier hour of day, has a lighting condition in which a million scenarios can capture the life of both heartland and motherland. Treading the footsteps in the conventions of Walker Evans, the forefather of the documentary tradition and Barbara Peacock were my inspirations for this journey.
