Ever wondered what the people in old photographs might have been thinking or why they often look so serious? Historical photographs can tell us a lot about the moment of their making, giving us glimpses into the architecture, decor, clothing, hierarchies and customs prevalent at the time. But what do they leave out? 

Join us for an interactive walkthrough of What The Camera Didn’t See led by Khushi Bansal, from MAP’s Exhibitions team. The exhibition brings together 23 artworks by Alexander Gorlizki and the Pink City Studio that reimagines the boundaries between photography and miniature painting, in response to photographs in the MAP collection.
