Just through with this shoot, WAPDA  actually lasted for 90 mins plus with no load-shedding.

Mehmood has now completed three book transformations with me over the past two years, The Frankfurt School, Peoples Art Historical Garden Centre Project (Image and identity) and now  the “Teddy’s Bear Foucault Reliquary”.

A very humid and hot evening, post-rains, no fans were on, so as to keep the sound crisp.
