“I visited Hampi as a young artist in 1991 and was spellbound by the raw beauty of its rugged landscape dotted with boulders. I moved to Anegundi in 1994 and founded The Kishkinda Trust in 1997 to work on empowering the local community through multi-disciplinary projects”, says Shama Pawar, Founder, The Kishkinda Trust (TKT), and Convenor, The Indian National Trust for Art and Cultural Heritage (INTACH) Anegundi, Hampi Chapter.

We are proud to be a ​subscriber-funded publication with members in 185 countries. Your support has allowed us to publish interviews, reviews, “what's on” information and ​long-read articles that we have shared freely online for the last twenty years. Unfortunately, in recent months, we have faced 30% increases in shipping and printing costs and rather than passing these on to our loyal subscribers​,​ we have made the difficult decision to request ​that ​you subscribe to access our online content.
