Four muses, one house
FOI Studios· 19 August 2026
Swapna, Aayu, Poulomi and Debpriya — public studies from The Hundredth Chamber, and the Kolkata salon that held them.
The Hundredth Chamber is four muses and a house. The house is not a backdrop. It is the fifth sitter.
FOI Magazine published the collector chapter from these Kolkata rooms. The public journal keeps the studies that can live in daylight: Swapna in profile, Aayu in red, Poulomi at the window, Debpriya on the collector cover. The lamps, the paintings, the camera on its stand — those are here too.




If you want the private sequence, it is marked and separate. This page is the house, the light, and the people as they chose to be seen in public.
