Over 60 years after architect Le Corbusier gave shape to Chandigarh, a French photographer is delving into the heart of the city to map its human element.
India's first planned city is captured through the lens of Manuel Bougot, who spent over two years in Chandigarh in "quest of its soul,"
and the resulting photogr--> "My first point of view was to show the link between the European and Indian cultures but then my interest in the city grew much deeper, to which I returned to several times since January 2009 when I had first encountered the city," says Bougot who is visiting India. The photographer says his love for the architectural city was ignited way back in the 1980s and grew deeper after he began exploring.
