The
Hobo
a.k.a Arvaan Kumar
...is an Indian creative and documentary photographer, currently living and working in New Delhi, India.
An environmentalist, first and foremost, he has spent the last decade developing a unique visual language in tandem with his academic inclinations.
Influenced heaviliy by music, cinema and other photographers (of course), his style emphasizes mood and composition over technical flawlessness.
Unsatisfied with the inherently restrictive nature of academic research, he views his photography (and the medium in general) as a crucial tool in translating the true realities of growing environmental struggles; photographing to evoke raw human emotion from those who view his work.
Recently, he finds himself fascinated with the blossoming Indian hip-hop and music scene.
