Photographs

A life in photographs.

Some photographs hold more than a face or a date. They hold relationships, beginnings, milestones and the versions of ourselves we once were.

The Archive

Memories that belong to the story.

This gallery will grow with the website. It brings together photographs from different chapters of Prateek Bhatia's life, including family memories and milestones from his public-service journey.

The photographs are presented here as personal history, without revealing the private details of the book's narrative.

“Some photographs don't simply record a moment. They preserve a version of who we once were.”

Growing archive

This gallery will keep evolving.

More photographs can be added as the website develops—family memories, places, professional milestones, literary events, conversations and moments from the journey of Broken and Made.

The intention is to build an archive over time rather than a static collection.

The book

The cover takes its place in the archive.

This draft cover is part of the visual journey of Broken and Made. As the book develops, this archive can preserve selected stages of its evolution.
