We are excited to start announcing our 2021 judges line up, and we begin with Suresh Naganathan.
Born in Switzerland in 1980, Suresh moved back to India, his parents’ country of origin, in 2008. Overwhelmed by the sounds, colours, and overbearing human presence in this new environment after 28 years in calm Switzerland, he picked up the camera in 2014 to make sense of all the chaos surrounding me.
Over the last few years, he has been exploring the streets of the world and of his home city, Mumbai. Wherever he goes, the camera is an integral part of him. He uses it to both explore the world around him as well as his own self.
His works have been published in Creative Image magazine, Eyeshot magazine and World Street Photography book. Over the last years, Suresh has been a finalist in various street photography competitions among which Miami Street Photography Festival 2017 & 2019, Italian Street Photography Festival 2018, Bangkok Street Photography Festival 2018.
Suresh is one of the founding members of Bambai Collective, a collective of street and documentary photographers based in Mumbai whose aim is to showcase the various sides of Mumbai, as well as In-Street Collective, a pan-Indian collective.
