Dialects Of Silence Delhi Under Lockdown
Parul Sharma
Dialects of Silence is one photographers quest to seek Delhis deserted soul during four months of the lockdown as a pandemic ravaged the world. Look closer. We see a woman daring out in the city she calls home, capturing the haunting beauty of its historic buildings,
sharing the grief of its Covid victims, and celebrating its vitality and courage.
She took thousands of photographs and Dialects of Silence is born out of her intimate conversations with one of the worlds greatest cities during those terrifying moments.
In a short span of three years, Parul Sharma has produced a huge body of diverse work, specializing in urban architectural forms, India’s cultural heritage and human portraits, winning critical acclaim in India and Europe.
