ANGST by Soham Gupta

A collection of works by Soham Gupt, a visual artist based in Kolkata, West Bengal, India.

This book contains photographs taken in the slums of Kolkata and the stories told by taxi drivers, outcasts, and fugitives.

"At night, the poor are fed - amidst the chaos, the filthy men and women lined up in a row were served keichuri on paper plates and ate. Saliva is dripping from the tongue of the scruffy dog ​​who waits behind it hoping to be left behind.Young men are a choir, temple volunteers say they are healthy, none are crippled, but battered. If they buy plastic buckets and cloth and stand by the tube well on the corner early in the morning, they can get a job washing taxis and make a lot of money. but all they want is enough money to buy a few tubes of glue.Beasts fight and even scramble for the food they are given..." - Soham Gupta
