JOSE JEULAND: Nanda, could you share a little bit more about you? Your Background, where grow-up? Education or previous jobs?
NANDAKUMAR NARASIMHAN: I was born in Bombay (now Mumbai). I spent the first 14 years of my life there before moving to Singapore with my dad in 1997. I did my degree in Environmental Engineering through NTU, and I haven't worked as an engineer for even a day. I don't even know if I can find my degree certificate today. So I've worked as a photographer since 2009, and that is clearly my field.
J.J.: Before digital photography, were you a photographer using film?
N. N.: Oh yes. I happened to be the Photographic Society president in my University, and I spent more time in the darkroom than in the lecture and tutorial rooms in NTU. I started with photography using my dad's Zenit EM camera back in 1998 and never really shot with a digital camera until 2007 when I did some portrait assignments in my University that required me to shoot on digital. For me, It's always been film cameras. Even today, around 95% of my personal projects are done on film.
J.J.: You did incredible work about the Indian Railways. Could you share with us more about this work? Which area was this? When did you start working on this series?
