Insta is full of street photography. Meet three illustrators whose works pack in more than the viewfinder can see
Aditya Raj, Delhi @AdirajArt
Aditya Raj’s policeman father was typically posted in small towns, where there wasn’t much to do. So growing up, Raj doodled cartoon characters on scraps of paper, and stuck them on the walls. By 2016, after he finished law school and was living in Delhi, he knew art was his calling. Aditya Raj’s artworks feature Ghibli-inspired facades set in Delhi. (INSTAGRAM/@ADIRAJART)
