Sarah Kenderdine and Jeffrey Shaw with Nawab Khan and Paul Bourke
Visualizing the inner life of Ahhichatragarh Fort and Palace complex at Nagaur, Rajasthan (India), the Eye of Nagaur is an interactive installation utilizing ultra-high resolution digital photographic and visualization techniques. Journeying into the ‘eye’ of its imposing three-metre diameter circular screen, viewers discover Ahhichatragarh’s magnificent architectural spaces, the fine detail of the painted ceilings, floors and wall decorations, its hydraulic infrastructure and unique fusion of Mughal-Rajput architecturalfeatures. These are presented as a circular constellation of ‘zoomable’ image spheres that viewers can rotate and enter.

Project initiated/commissioned by Terry Glenn Phipps, supported by Museum Victoria, Seitz, His Highness Maharaja Gajsingh II of Marwar-Jodhpur, Mehrangarh Museum Trust, Helen Hamlyn Trust and the Lady Hamlyn.
