Red within Clay

In the narrow lanes of Kumortuli, divinity slowly rises from clay, while another story gently appears. Young women in red sarees walk through the streets, stopping to smile, to laugh, to spend a moment with friends and family. Their presence blends into the unfinished idols around them, as if clay and skin shared the same breath. The red they wear holds more than celebration; it speaks of strength, softness, love, and faith. Each picture shows a meeting of the everyday and the divine, where passing moments feel eternal, and every woman mirrors the spirit of the goddess coming alive.
