Satyam Bora (b. 1997, Delhi, India) lives somewhere between dreams and wakefulness — which, depending on the day, might also be called Delhi. His work drifts through photography, storytelling, and the invisible threads that tie memory to place. He collects fragments — photographs, dust, air, and the hum of old ceiling trying to make sense of what home means when everything keeps changing shape.
He moves through India’s lush jungles and its concrete quiet, tracing the edges of absence. His images aren’t about what’s there so much as what isn’t. There’s a stillness in them, the kind that only exists in cities that never sleep.
“Bora’s narratives unfold like dreams that have forgotten their logic. He scavenges photographs from family albums, half-broken archives, and the flea markets where memory goes to retire. Then, he stitches them to his own photographs — as if trying to repair time itself. His projects linger in decay, in the soft erosion of meaning, in the quiet persistence of domestic life. What remains is a feeling: of rooms that remember you, of objects that outlive love, of home as a question more than an answer.”
