Asha Thadani is a photographic artist based in Bengaluru. In the series ‘India and Her Animals’, she explores the ambiguous and at times unstable frontier between man and animal. It is a journey that visits man’s evolutionary dependence, elimination and encroachment of a kingdom he shares his origins with.
This series, photographed across India, seeks to illustrate our heritage and propensities as humans and understand what it means to be human, what distinguishes us from non-human inhabitants and which aspect of animal nature and intuition drives and defines us. Thadani has exhibited her work at the Albert-Kahn Museum in Paris. Her work has been auctioned at Christie’s Paris.
