Curate, connect, and discover
- Written by Astha Kesri
- Visuals by Vaishnavi
The text has been formatted by amalgamating the various stages my brain tends to process emotions through. With poetry and, without it.
I am extremely thankful to Vaishnavi for visualizing this piece. I can’t think of anyone else who’d film my poetry as you have. I look forward to more such collaborations where both of us can pursue our love for creating art.

The Sketch Hunter – 17cm x 14cm on linen
She carries her sketchbook everywhere, collecting ideas.
---------------------
The sketch hunter moves through life as he finds it, not passing negligently the things he loves, but stopping to know them, and to note them down in the shorthand of his sketchbook. Like any hunter he hits or misses. He is looking for what he loves, he tries to capture it. It’s found anywhere, everywhere. Those who are not hunters do not see these things. The hunter is learning to see and to understand—to enjoy.
