The Opposites

In 2012 photographer and Leica 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 in his perception of the world and his place in it. Photography found him, and through it he discovered more about himself. Five years later, Ken experienced the opposite—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 capturing moments around the world through his lens. Containing two distinct, back-to-back series, one by each brother, Lost & Found encapsulates their shared love for the medium, yet true to its title the book demonstrates a compelling duality in style and subject matter. Published here for the first time together, the work of the Narula brothers reveals a resounding ability to chron- icle the ordinary and extraordinary occurrences of everyday life.
