Kuber Shah

Kuber Shah is a photographer and visual archivist whose practice focuses on the overlooked details of urban heritage. He spent 14 years in Berlin and upon returning to Mumbai, started documenting the city, it’s people and the stories it holds. His work offers a tasteful documentation of the city’s Art Deco architecture legacy. From stairwells, balconies, facades to typographic signage rendered in crisp, contemplative stillness. Through his photographs, Shah creates a vibrant archive of a city which is caught between the erasures of time and the endurance of form.

 

His photographic practice turns architectural fragments into meditations on cultural memory, mapping the intersections of space, nostalgia, and identity. With a practice that straddles photography and urban preservation. Shah’s photographs have been featured in Architectural Digest, and digital platforms that highlight built heritage and typographic history.
