The Ganges: Life on the River by Sebastian Giunta, at the Addison Road Community Centre’s Stirrup Gallery as part of the Head On Photography Festival open program.

The exhibition will run from 17 to 23 November. Opening Night on Thursday, 20 November.

This collection of photographs offers a glimpse into the lives of the community of Varanasi, capturing the spirit of its people and the beauty I often found in ordinary moments. I believe that each image tells a story of resilience, culture, and connection echoes that I feel resonates not only with my cultural background but also with the wider community.

This body of work has been both a personal and artistic journey, allowing me to grow as a storyteller while celebrating the shared human experience.

The opening night will feature: Live sitar performance by Ravi. DJ set by DJ JRod
