Ramchandra "Ramchand" Yadav

a sugarcane village in rural Uttar Pradesh, India

Ramchand is a self-taught taxidermist who has lived in his village his entire life. He inherited the trade from his father and has spent decades perfecting his art in his small, cluttered workshop. Known for his meticulous attention to detail, he relies solely on naturally occurring materials. The hymn he hums accompanies him like an old friend, its origin as mysterious as his lifelong fascination with moments arrested in time, especially a stopped clock's peculiar stillness.
