Chennai Photo Biennale has organised this exhibition, which portrays Tamil Nadu, a land of endless stories, through the lenses of these young artists.  The “unfiltered vision of the students” combined with the plethora of stories available in Tamil Nadu have produced a compelling narrative for the viewer, according to the organisers of the exhibition on their  website. The photographs focusses on Tamil Nadu’s diverse people, food, architecture, landscapes, and cultural trails.

Over the last few months, the students had been invited to document Tamil Nadu’s heritage, both natural and man-made. This exhibition of the works of these student photographers will be on display at the venue till April 17.
