Through a series of fragmented thoughts and illustrations, these pages are an idea of enclosure, set against the backdrop of Dharavi, one of Mumbai’s densely packed landscapes.

The narrow alleyways and the layered rooftops, form a world within walls. Dharavi, with its compressed spaces and labyrinthine pathways, is a reality. The walls here are not just barriers; they are surfaces that absorb sounds, and moments of stillness. Some walls trap, others protect. Some are opaque, others unexpectedly reflective.

In a place that rises vertically, pushing against the sky, these are the spaces in between—where light flickers, wind hums through cracks, and stories unfold within four walls.
