View #5 (Agra – Taj Mahal) is a set of six photographs (each 21 x 28 cm) on archival paper, accompanied by an audio track. Agra is a historic city in northern India, located in the state of Uttar Pradesh. The Taj Mahal, built in the 17th century by Mughal emperor Shah Jahan, is a white marble mausoleum and UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is celebrated for its exquisite symmetry, intricate carvings, and enduring symbol of love.

View #5 (Agra – Taj Mahal) 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.
