View #6 (Aurangabad – Ellora Caves) is a set of six photographs (each 21 x 28 cm) on archival paper, accompanied by an audio track. Aurangabad is a historic city in the western Indian state of Maharashtra. The nearby Ellora Caves, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, are renowned for their monumental monolithic rock-cut temples and monasteries carved between the 6th and 10th centuries, showcasing Buddhist, Hindu, and Jain traditions.

View #6 (Aurangabad – Ellora Caves) 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.
