Machhli nadi khol ke baithi
The fish rests with the river unveiled
zine book published by Eklavya Foundation, India
written by Sushil Shukla
illustrated by Vasundhara Arora
designed by Kanak Sashi
The book has received recognition on the 'Parag Honour List - 2022'
The zine unravels a thread of thought through a small poem written in Hindi, which can be
interpreted in various ways by the reader. For the artwork, the idea was to portray the
poem using existing recurrent visuals from everyday life. Employing a minimalist choice of materials, notably watercolor, and fusing it with a contemporary expression. I wish to believe, the book provides insight into the essential intricacies of life that resonate with both, children and adults.
