New York City prints: a remembered city inside another
Anjali Arora’s New York City series combines digitally manipulated photographs with memories of India, then carries the assembled image back onto paper.
The artist’s account of the process
In the gallery captured on 20 August 2015, Arora describes walking along Broadway while recalling hand-pulled carts, cows and three-wheeled rickshaws from India. The proposed meeting of these places is explicitly imaginative. The series combines photographic material through digital manipulation, produces a large-format print on paper, and adds crayon and paint.
That sequence matters: this is neither an unaltered record of a New York street nor the same project as My Two Worlds, which uses painted textures and three-dimensional animation. The related question is how a remembered place can alter the experience of another.
