THROUGH THE LENSED EYE

What is it in front of our eye that makes us think or be baffled? Why does it demand our attention?

It looks like a photograph but to be precise it is something more than that. Has the artist seen through the lenses in his eyes or has he planted his eyes in the camera?

From my point of view it is absolutely contemporary form of art, because it belongs to a time between ancient past to infinite future. Both machine and Ashish exchanged with each other what they had been missing.

Their togetherness is astonishing and it stands for their identity.

While Ashish looks at the outside world the camera peeps into his mind.

We have to follow Ashish's works with such a will for appreciation. He is neither afraid of his ignorance nor over confident of his intellect, humbly and spontaneously he exposes his vision for us.
