The Window Street Store by Karthick Saravanan
During the photo walk in the streets of Kannagi Nagar, Chennai, a government-contracted housing area near the seashore, I immersed myself in exploring the lives of its residents. Amidst the tightly-packed buildings, I stumbled upon a scene where a brother and sister were purchasing household items from a store located at an apartment window early in the morning. The girl’s nostalgic glance towards the camera added a poignant touch to the moment.
