View #4 (Mumbai – Malad West) is a set of six photographs (each 21 x 28 cm) on archival paper, accompanied by an audio track. Mumbai is a major coastal city in western India and the capital of Maharashtra. Malad West is a bustling suburb of Mumbai known for its mix of residential neighbourhoods and commercial zones. It reflects the city’s rapid urban growth and the everyday rhythms of its diverse communities.
View #4 (Mumbai – Malad West) is part of Baptist Coelho’s ongoing multimedia series View, which explores the shifting relationship between people and their environments, capturing the tension and flow of shared public spaces. The aerial vantage point of the series invites the viewer to see from a new perspective, transforming familiar scenes into unexpected views. With each location captured in six photographs, the work echoes the idea of ‘Six Degrees of Separation’, suggesting that people from different backgrounds may still be connected in unexpected ways. A six-minute soundscape, recorded alongside the photographs, draws the viewer in with ambient sounds that evoke a sense of place and connection.
