There have been several exhibitions on pictures of monuments, the reason why this exhibition Heritage beyond sunset is distinct from others is the way in which the monuments have been captured with an additional majestic beauty of night and lights in it.
Heritage beyond sunset- showcases photographs of monuments from across the country-India, mainly from the capital city Delhi. What makes the photographs unique is the fact that for almost all the monuments the public view is closed after 6 pm and it requires special permission to get into the premises. That is the time when they are lit with artificial lighting to give it an additional charm and charismatic effect and so most of them haven’t been able to catch the eyes of people.
Keeping the very view, Sushil took it up as a subject for this exhibition and he decided to capture the monuments with a different perspective and feel in it, which he believes, it’s a unique exhibition.
