There is magic in pictures, they say. Sometimes, in an oversaturated modern world that functions on visual stimulation, it is hard to recollect this magical experience of watching a moving image. Yet, since it was first discovered, artists, scientists and even magicians have experimented and played around with visuals to explore the possibilities. Filmmakers and creators Karan Talwar, Namrata Sanghani and Simran Ankolkar will attempt to put on one such production this weekend at Harkat Studios that hopes to explore similar ideas.
The idea emerged in 2023, when the trio were looking to recreate the first colour photograph. The image, Talwar remarks, was created by a scientist James Maxwell in 1855 when he shot images in three different colours — Red, Green and Blue — and projected them together. This idea formed the germ for the concept of Laal Aasmaan, Hara Gulaab Neeli Dharti as the trio titled it.
