Scenes from the Kochi Biennale
by Sameer Kulavoor and Lokesh Karekar
In December, we relocated to Kerala for a few weeks to cover stories from the third edition of the Kochi Muziris Biennale. On our third day in Cochin, we bumped into illustrators and visual artists Sameer Kulavoor and Lokesh Karekar (and their friend Sandeep) at Pepper House, seated at a table with as much coffee and cake as stationery.
To kick off our Kerala issue, we present you with a peep into their sketchbooks. Scroll down for their observations from Fort Kochi - the people, the cafes, the venues and the artworks on display.
