In 2012 photographer and camera collector Ken Narula gave his brother Rammy Narula his first camera—a gesture rooted in the hope that photography would provide an outlet for Rammy during a difficult period in his life. It ended up exceeding all their expectations: Rammy’s newfound connection signaled a significant shift, both in terms of his perception of the world and his place within it. Photography found him, and through it he discovered more about himself: “It got me out of the house and onto the streets, and my focus began to shift to life outside my head.” Five years later, Ken experienced something quite different—a sense of unfulfillment, despite professional success, and a desire to become lost in the process of taking photographs. He decided to leave behind his established life and travel, dedicating himself to recording unrehearsed moments around the world in black and white. Containing two distinct series, one by each brother and bound together as a reversible book, The Opposites encapsulates their shared love for the medium, yet shows a compelling duality in style and subject matter through Ken’s photos in classic black and white and Rammy’s of vibrant color. Published here for the first time together, the work of the Narula brothers reveals a resounding ability to chronicle the ordinary and extraordinary occurrences of everyday life.
