About
I’m Amit Karmakar and I live in Sydney, Australia. Capturing human emotions and documenting the world around me brings me joy. Long I’ve focussed on capturing everything just right — framing, exposure, light. A photo can have all that and still lack meaning. This made me gravitate towards documentary and candid portraiture. Every face tells a story and mine is to connect with the truth I see.
My work was displayed in Sydney and Melbourne. Some are in archival collections at the Department of Education, New South Wales and at Public Records Office of Victoria in Melbourne.
