About Me

Hi, my name is Bapi Chakraborty. I'm a fine art photographer developing projects that combine the finest in glamour, fashion, fantasy, erotic and art; in search of the ultimate allure. I'm eclectic without being esoteric (I had to look up those words, too). Travelling has helped me to appreciate the fleeting moments of connection to the people and places encountered, and to never to miss an opportunity to celebrate whatever beauty I see.

My Interests

I'm a big fan of diversity and multiplicity of expression and appreciation...some forms of expression are more ill-advised than others, and even though it's a challenge to manage different points of view, it seems like the way to go...the only thing needed to make a real connection in that diversity, is mutual appreciation and respect. The main influences for Art of Allure, other than photography, is fantasy/art movies, classical art, fantasy illustration, nature, the creative/erotic aspects of life, and the feminine mystique...the potential to create something genuinely beautiful, is also a big turn on.

I'd like to meet:

glamour models/performers to photograph. artistic collaborators, and inspirations. 'art patrons'! adventurous publishers and editors. people who have the courage to follow their innermost convictions; who make the hard-earned choice to add to the beauty and aliveness of the world, beyond reason...forces of nature.View All Friends | View Blog | Add Comment
