Interview with Suresh Naganathan
WHO? Born in Switzerland in 1980 to Indian parents, I did something that most Indians wouldn’t do, I moved back to the country of my origins in 2008. I’ve been living and working in Mumbai, the megapolis I call home, for the last 11 years. I am both Swiss and Indian, and neither Swiss nor Indian. This tension in my identity has colored all my life and I try to use it in my photography as well.

It was the summer of 2013 and the course was tutored by Alex and Rebecca Webb in Barcelona. ‘Oh God,’ I replied to my daughter Gwen when she asked me to go, but I went for the fun of it. I had no idea how to use the camera and I was obviously the worst in the class, but for some reason, I don’t know why, I really found it fascinating.
