Summary:
(-29 ° C in Lapland is on at Focus Art Gallery, Rukmani Lakshmipathi Road, Egmore, till July 11. “I touched down at Rovaniemi, 800 kilometres to the North of Helsinki and the gateway to Lapland. Both the light and the landscape have an ethereal quality.”But, it was not the fabled Northern Lights that Chilaka chased when he landed in Lapland. Wrapped in a snow suit and boots, inhaling the fine ice that lingers in the air and moving, sometimes, at a glacial pace, he says shooting in Lapland was therapeutic. It’s an experience that is now framed for posterity in 28 pictures at Focus art Gallery..
