Sohrab Hura. Snow (2015.ongoing).

A shifting, personal reflection on conflict, distance, and perception

Indian photographer Sohrab Hura began the project Snow in 2015 during travels to Kashmir, a region long shaped by political tension, military presence, and contested narratives. Rather than focusing on the overt signs of conflict, Hura approaches the landscape with a deliberately subjective and evolving perspective. His images range from stark and atmospheric to abstract and emotionally disorienting.snow-covered roads, blurred outlines, human presence barely visible or entirely absent.

Snow resists traditional photojournalistic framing. Instead, Hura layers his visual language with memory, metaphor, and mood. The snow becomes more than a weather condition.it is a veil, a silence, a surface onto which uncertainty and fear are projected. Over time, as Hura returned to the region and revisited his own relationship to it, the project became less about documenting a place and more about the instability of seeing, knowing, and understanding.

In Snow , the boundaries between documentary and introspection dissolve. It is an ongoing archive of visual fragments.haunting, lyrical, and intentionally unresolved. Hura challenges the viewer to sit with ambiguity, to question their own desire for clarity, and to confront the limits of representation when facing places marked by trauma and complexity.
