The Watcher of Drift and Dwell

Along the ragged edge of land where gulls scream and the wind never rests, the crow lives among the seaside dwellers. Not as a guest, not as a stranger, but as one of them — feathered in salt, dark as seaweed-dampened stone, eyes sharp as fishhooks. The people of the shore — fishers, net-menders, salt-sellers, children with sand in their shoes — have come to know the crow not with words, but with offerings. A sliver of mackerel on the sill. A broken shell arranged just so. The crow accepts, but never begs. It visits the docks at dawn, the fish stalls at dusk, always arriving when it is needed, never asking to stay.
They say the crow is a watcher. That it knows when the sea will turn angry, when the storm will slip in under the horizon’s lid. Old women glance toward the rooftops, searching for its silhouette, and if they do not see it — they close their shutters early. Children grow up learning not to chase it, but to nod in greeting. Sometimes, the crow brings things — odd trinkets left on stoops or boat decks: sea glass, a rusted nail, a scrap of fishing line twisted like a charm. Small gifts, misunderstood by outsiders, but treasured by those who know. To the sea folk, the crow is not a mere bird. It is memory in motion.
It is ritual. It is echo. It is the black stitch in the hem of the coast. They do not cage it. They do not name it. They simply live beside it. And when a boat doesn’t return, when a name is whispered over the waves, the crow circles high and silent, a lone mourner in the sky — bearing witness, always.

II The GEOMETRY of INNOCENCE II

The mind of a child is a landscape both raw and radiant—filled with wonder, fluid logic, and a powerful emotional immediacy. Artists and photographers seeking to portray this inner world often turn not only to subject matter, but to form. Among the most evocative artistic tools for this purpose is geometry—the lines, shapes, patterns, and spatial structures that both compose an image and symbolize the architecture of thought.

In photography, geometry becomes more than aesthetic—it becomes psychological. When used with intention, it mirrors how a child sees, learns, and imagines. The child’s mind, still unbound by rigid conventions, perceives the world with both simplicity and strangeness. Photographers capturing this perspective often adopt a visual language rooted in bold shapes, playful angles, and spatial curiosity.

By photographing geometry not just as form but as metaphor, the artist builds a bridge between the visual and the psychological, inviting us to see as children do—not just with eyes, but with wonder.

This small representation is regarding those unfortunate souls who don’t have the liberty to choose a better life. They are mostly stuck to their pre destined future and their life swings on the same trade as their mother’s. Somewhere I felt there might be few brave souls who would like to listen to the calls of nature and be courageous enough to step out of the potholes to free themselves and fly away from the chains of the society.
