DR ROOPSHA SAMANTA @roopsha

I am a New York-based photographer and computer scientist. After two decades in academia, I came to New York for a summer hiatus and began walking the city streets, experiencing the world through a new lens, both literal and metaphorical. I fell in love with the city and with photography, and the hiatus became a new life.

Like myself, my art inhabits multiple worlds and their thresholds — the inner and the outer, the visible and the invisible, the real and the imagined, the familiar and the dissonant, the visual and the literary. My photographs and words are part seen and part felt, part read and part contemplated, a never-ending dialogue between myself and the human landscapes I traverse.

We were thrilled to have Roopsha Samanta and Sal Taylor Kydd for April's Exposure Salon. After Roopsha Samanta's beautiful and moving presentation, we had the pleasure of a park stroll at Madison Square Park and a short interview. Thank you for your wonderful contribution! Discover more her work at @roopsha .

I was fortunate to have two of my favorite photographs exhibited in two wonderful festivals in the first week of May! The first one was in @dsp_festival in Dublin (see previous post) and the second one was in the @the_raw_society Photo Fest in Menorca as part of the @womenstreetphotographers exhibition.

The Raw Photo Fest was the most expansive and inspiring photo festival I have seen so far, with 20 different exhibitions/events featuring photographers like @martinparrstudio, @webb_norriswebb, @stevemccurryofficial, @edkashi, and @johnstanmeyer, among many other masters of the craft.

To simply be a part of a festival of this stature would have been enough. But, to get to experience the festival in person — with its stunning installations across outdoor plazas and historic buildings and the warm camaraderie of kindred souls — is a privilege like no other. Thank you @the_raw_society, @christelle_enquist, @jorgedelgadophoto, @womenstreetphotographers, @gulnara.samoilova, and juror @gaelle_gouinguene for this gift.

Also featuring:
@nickbrandtphotography, @lademiddel, @mattiaflip, @stephanieduprierouth, @raul_canibanofoto, @leysisquesadavera,
@_rizandra_, @manuelalmenares_studio, @sarabiastudio, @vita_flumen, @sharon.eilon.photography, @stefanie_wbl, @streets_by_reffeldt, @denisepensky, @orabuerkli, @rose_vandepitte, @noni.ngatia, @zahra.mirmalek, @begoama, @domi.piskorz, @renatadangelo, @jacqui_shep, @pamela.fricke.

How fortunate am I to have two of my favorite photographs exhibited in two wonderful festivals this week!

First up is the @dsp_festival, which just wrapped up yesterday in Dublin. I was unable to attend because of visa logistics, but was very much there in spirit, trying to take in what I could of the fantastic program!

Huge thanks to @aradeza1, @alex_uniqueye, @cornafeanlynam, @on_the_street_with_anna,and @womenstreetphotographers for kindly sharing photos and videos of my displayed photograph.

Congratulations to all exhibiting photographers and heartfelt thanks to the festival organizers @desbstreet and @reflexlens, and all the volunteers.

Longing…

I hope some of you will find a couple of minutes to slow down and take in this video and let me know how it made you feel. I think this video encapsulates what my creative practice looks like these days — a little street, a little self-portraiture, a little meditation, and a lot of play.

P.S. Made this video as my final assignment for the F**k the Photo class with teacher extraordinaire @geraldslota and the best classmates @parvathi_kumar_photography and @alexavandewalle. Can’t recommend this class enough!

In the aftermath of the high of the Women Street Photographers Festival this past weekend, I had a crazy brainwave. I asked 6 women street photographers to photograph me in and around my home. Perhaps this was an exercise in vanity, like most things are, but I was mainly curious to see how their lenses would capture me in a space where I make a lot of self-portraits. And I happened to have a red dress on. Couldn’t hurt. Here are the photos we made together — some candid, some posed, all unplanned.

I want to give a shoutout to two wonderful humans who made this creative camaraderie possible.

The first, of course, is @gulnara.samoilova, who started a community whose ripples are felt in so many ways within our minds and across the world. The seven of us wouldn’t have found our way to each other that evening without the sense of community Gulnara has sparked and painstakingly nurtured.

The second is @geraldslota, one of the most creative minds I have met and who I am currently taking a class with (along with two other WSPs @parvathi_kumar_photography and @alexavandewalle). The class is called F**k the Photo, and I wouldn’t have had the brainwave I did without Gerald’s homework prompt. The collage of the 6 photos of me ended up being my homework submission :-).

Huge thanks to @aradeza1, @belenalcat, @csantucci.photo, @diavoyager, @hirokohirota, and @die.basilisk for joining me in this creative madness. Love you all!
