Akshay has traveled to some of the most dangerous and unlikely corners of South Asia. His work
has taken him face to face with members of the Mumbai land mafia, helped him gauge the
entrepreneurial spirit of one of Asia’s largest slums, Dharavi, onto the sets of Bollywood films,
on the trail of the Microfinance dollar in Rajasthan, across North India and Nepal in an all out
auto-rickshaw race, and to Asia’s largest Garbage dump in Cambodia that reduce waste to gold
at the cost of the people who work there and the environment. India and travel continue to be the
inspiration for his work. He is known to combine his talent both the medium in word and in
photography to produce final product with distinct style and voice.
