This journey, retracing the steps of the Mahatma and those who walked with him
ninety years ago to break the draconian Salt Law, scours through what the winds
of time has left behind. It attempts to recover, rebuild stories lost in the dusty
doorways leading through mud-ways and paved pathways, dried up reservoirs and
river-ways, maidans with or without the luxurious canopies of banyan trees where
the marchers had tread or rested and where Gandhiji addressed the local populace.
It is a forgotten hinterland barely traversed since, but Anuj Ambalal’s penetrating
lens uncovers it all, peeling walls of
amnesia layer by layer. And indeed
each of these has a story to tell. Not
only the tales of the indefatigable
marchers but also of the people who
stood steadfastly by the questing soul
who led them. Charged with the spirit
of the marchers as though joining
them, these images have turned many
a site into visions of searing clarity: no
matter that they represent the pristine
world of nature or the most mundane
spectacle of urban existence.
