About Chandra Sivaraman

That’s me, the photographer. I never planned to be one, but felt instictively drawn to the camera every time I picked one up. The viewfinder to me was a tantalizing portal into an alternate reality.

I believe that nature is the antidote to the disharmony of modern living. A spa for frayed nerves accessible to all if only we can slow down enough to see and be quiet enough to listen. I seek to portray nature as it might have appeared in primordial times using a minimal, black and white aesthetic, distilling it to its essence. Occasionally, I also explore the contrast between the natural and the man made.

It is my hope that these portraits of nature bring you a moment’s tranquility, a brief repose in a world obsessed with speed.
