ghost coast

Elancharan Gunasekaran


This photo was captured sometime during the covid-19 pandemic on the eastern coast of Singapore. The shot is a reminder of rising sea levels, disappearing coastlines and of a bleak future should we turn a blind eye on our ecosystems and natural environment.


Elancharan Gunasekaran is inspired by Dadaist movements, butoh and anarchism. He believes that humans are capable of governing themselves without the need of political systems. His art often involves experimenting with visual and literary forms on the raw aspects of the human condition, climate change and man-made / natural phenomena.
