My homie Sara'o put me onto Sunil Gupta as he's a big fan. I believe my friend Sarah showed me some of his stuff at http://www.sepia.org/ some time ago as well. There's no way I could pick four or five pieces to do him justice. You should just visit his website, seriously. The first two pieces I posted are reminiscent of his style of juxtaposing images related to South Asia and the Western world.
(On a side note: Hey Western world, what it is? What it do? Write me back!)
"Sunil Gupta is an Indian-born Canadian photographer whose work has been the subject of numerous exhibits. Major themes of his work include migration, sexuality, health/illness and architecture, both monumental and quotidian."
