Bits and pieces of a photo shoot with the most talented Pearl, the mime artist who captured my heart 2 years ago in the streets of New York. Here is the story from our first meeting!

Always use to wonder where my pieces of photos would fit in the larger puzzle of life or would it just remain as self expression. But finally there came Cowbird and its saga of Occupy where some of my tiny observations seemed fitting. It needs writing ~ while I lost most of my writing skills in the flow of time. Hopefully will pull it back with Cowbird. For the time being its a photo collage that moves and giggles in a beautiful interface. Anyways, I have a diary in Cowbird and hopefully it will be part of larger sagas. Here is mine. Thanks to Number 27!

Sept 17, 2011 –

On the very first day of Occupy Wall Street, standing with not less than a five hundred large crowd, quiet unaware of where it’s all heading to. There were no leaders, people gathered in groups and talked their mind. There were all kinds of things from corporate greed to public transport they associated this occupation with! While youngsters still wondered if they were really going to stay back, elders shouted around groups to stay back , to use this chance to occupy the Wall Street! Yes, finally they indeed occupy the Wall Street!

More action here: Occupywallstreet. Adbusters. wearethe99percent

Going back to the Zuccotti park 20 days later since the R-evol-ution has begun. The park turned shabbier ~ but a robust hub of activities, slogans and interesting faces. It so looked a community soaked up in energy, living to the fullest! As I peeked through the corners and faces at the park..

A month old Occupy Wall street when finally occupied Times Square! It was really huge and extremely symbolic.

Occupy Wall street being evicted from the Zuccotti park just a day before it closes second month of occupation. Non violent crowd protested around the yellow clad park enveloped by barricades and police.

My relation with this city is just complicated, as much as I realise I wont fit any where else in this country! The glass is just a means to see the many aspirations and reflections of the city scape itself.
