This exhibition documents my journey of exploration of a place called 'Silo City', a collection of about ten, mostly disused, silos along a one-mile stretch of the Buffalo River. Over a period of one year from 2012 to 2013 I visited this place numerous times, took thousands of images, and begun to feel at home. As I came back again and again, I discovered how things change over the course of days, months, and seasons but nevertheless remain the same. It is this interplay of constancy and change which to me reveals the essence of this place and it is this interplay that I aim to capture in the images selected for this exhibition.
