CHENNAI: The Chennai Photowalk Group is set to host the fifth edition of its annual photo exhibition, titled Eyes of Madras 5.0. Organised by the Chennai PhotoWalk (CPW), this initiative aims to celebrate and encourage amateur and passionate photographers.
“Eyes of Madras (EoM) serves as a platform for CPW members to showcase their photography skills, featuring images captured under carefully curated themes. Every artist yearns for encouragement and appreciation, which is the idea behind EoM. The upcoming exhibition, the fifth in the series, continues to foster inclusivity by providing an opportunity for all photographers,” share the organisers. They also plan a digital showcase for images that couldn’t be accommodated due to space constraints.
