Book signing at Steidlville London

We are very pleased to announce a book signing and reception for Sent a Letter by Dayanita Singh.

Dayanita Singh has been making small photo journals of her travels in India for some years now. Each book is made with a certain person in mind, either one she has made the journey with or one that was on her mind on her travels. Two copies are handmade by her, one remains with her (she calls this her kitchen museum) and the other with the friend it was made for. A diary with coded images of a time shared. Steidl is pleased to publish 7 of these diaries for the first time, along with an eighth diary, of Nony Singh’s photographs of her daughter growing up. The diaries are in accordion folds and open into a mini private exhibition in her friends’ homes. They will be presented in a handmade wooden box.
Books will be available to purchase on the evening
