In January 2024, a dinner conversation in London sparked an audacious idea: a 3,000-kilometre tuktuk expedition from Rameshwaram in South India to Bhuj in the West. What began as a wild notion quickly transformed into a purposeful adventure—raising awareness and support for Shishukunj International’s mission to improve educational infrastructure in Bhuj.
Over 12 days, Jayu Shah spent nine hours a day navigating India’s vibrant, chaotic roads in tiny three-wheeled tuktuks. The journey was as challenging as it was exhilarating. Locals he met along the way were stunned by our mode of travel, and he was equally stunned by the warmth and curiosity we encountered.
This exhibition captures the spirit of that ride: the slow rhythm of travel, the roadside karak chai, the friendships forged through shared breakdowns and breakthroughs. Most of all, it celebrates the everyday beauty of India—moments glimpsed from the passenger seat and frozen through the lens.
