In Shadows is a 6-piece
black-and-white photography series by Nepali
photographer Vik,
exploring transformation, duality, and
becoming yourself. Each image
captures a passerby suspended in a
moment, caught between light and
shadow, stillness and motion, much
like the artist himself navigating life
abroad.

These aren’t portraits of people, but
of chance. The compositions feel
intentional, yet they’re entirely
unstaged, reflections of how the city
offers up its own rhythm if you’re
patient enough to catch it.
Vik often wonders what it would be
like to have his own photograph
taken this way, unposed, unaware,
part of the flow. That quiet wish
shapes the emotional core of this
series: a recognition that we’re all
part of each other’s stories, even
when we are In Shadows
