“Bridging the Divide” is a staged photo performance that brings together the body, site, and object in a synergistic composition to express a shared concern for environmental degradation, specifically deforestation and the loss of biodiversity within the University of Hyderabad, a campus situated in a designated reserve forest.

This work reflects a collective act of empathy and solidarity with the environment, positioning the human body not as a separate entity but as part of the ecological continuum. It calls attention to the urgent need for reconnection and responsibility in the Anthropocene era, where human actions dominate and endanger natural systems. The performance becomes a gesture of hope and resistance, embodying a humane stance amidst ecological crisis.
