Sunil Gupta

My Thoughts:

Sunil Gupta is a very inspiring photographer and artist. His work felt very personal and proper from the start of the presentation, in the 1970s, to his work now.

Photography is a medium that I am not experienced with, so I am always aware of, and impressed by how much skill it takes to produce emotive and interesting photographs.
