Photography is ever changing and so are its trends which are taking new forms in perspective of social science and emerging trends. We look for the analysis of recent phenomena in photography, but also for the presentation of sophisticated art projects. Be it any form of photography, we dwell into trends, which has vast sociological / anthropological implications for ambitious projects, also looking at creating dynamic and hidden photography forms.

Analyzing various types of models that can be distinguished, looking at the ones which end up as the subject of a photograph by chance, or become part of a rather spontaneous shot, and further, profiling people modeling as a hobby or a job, be it in form of planned photoshooting or be it people offering to be photographed at common travel destinations, often being dressed up to match tourists’ visions of local traditions.
Apart from these research modules, we at IIP are also exploring the idea of “archiving” pictures and document it for further research and analysis programmes. Not only will this aid study programmes but also promises to open up newer learning tracks on the way to attaining photography as an evolved form of art.
