Sameer Kulavoor



Last week I spent the most hectic/glorious/humid 5 days running about all over the beautiful decay that is Bombay . As my little trip tapered to it's very end ,taking with it my excitement , I managed to hold on to it just a little longer as Sameer Kulavoor handed me this little book , Sidewalks & Coffeeshops .

Sameer decided to take his visual meanderings and turn it into (what I hope will be)the first of many little books, that document the space between . Little snippets of time, lapses between assignments , idle time spent doodling at coffeeshops. Beautifully illustrated , these completely hand drawn images are wistful, sly , funny & morbid.

Such a great memento to take back . Thanks Sameer :)

They are a limited edition of 100 and you can't get them at a store :P
