The Silent Thinker

Here, I am presenting a portrait of an Orangutan with deep, soulful eyes, reflecting both intelligence and sorrow. Their gaze speaks of a quiet plea for survival, haunted by the encroachment of deforestation and habitat loss, a silent struggle for existence and survival in a rapidly changing world.

About Artist

Venkatesh Kittur

I’m Venky Kittur, a Melbourne-based photographer with a deep, unwavering passion for wildlife and nature. Through my lens, I aim to capture the raw beauty and intricate details of the natural world, from the majesty of animals to the awe-inspiring landscapes that surround us. While wildlife photography is the heart of my practice, my artistic journey spans across portraiture, abstract art, fine art, architecture, and minimalism. Each shot I take is carefully composed to tell a story, evoking emotion and inviting reflection. My work in black and white as well as colour, allows me to emphasize contrasts, textures, and emotions, creating timeless images that speak on a deeper level. At the core of my photography lies a commitment to compassion—for animals, for nature, and for the environment. I strive not only to capture beautiful moments but also to raise awareness about the urgent need to protect our planet and its creatures. Through every image, my goal is to inspire a movement toward a more sustainable, compassionate world—one that reflects the profound beauty we all share.
