Episode notes
With Taran Wilkhu & Nishant Shukla
The seaside holds a special place in British culture, but what does it mean for South Asian communities in the UK? In this episode, Mehala, Taran, and Nishant reflect on The Great British Seaside, a series by photographer Martin Parr, commissioned by Royal Museums Greenwich. They discuss the photographs, which capture South Asian families enjoying classic British seaside traditions, and share their own experiences of seaside trips, storytelling through photography, and the nuances of diaspora life.
Taran Wilkhu is a London-based lifestyle photographer specializing in interiors, architecture, and portrait photography. Nishant Shukla is a photographer working between the UK and India, and the director of Lake Gallery in Deptford.
