Vadehra Art Gallery proudly presents Bachpan, a solo exhibition by acclaimed Delhi-based photographer Vicky Roy, featuring 45 compelling black-and-white photographs curated from two major bodies of work: Bachpan and the never-before-seen Janwaar Castle series.
Through his lens, Roy offers an intimate and nostalgic look into childhood in India’s underrepresented communities, capturing moments of innocence, resilience, and creativity.
