In his “Love Studio”, photographer Samsul Alam Helal offers a space for people to live out their wildest dreams.
“The studio was a space for people to do things they wouldn’t do outside the studio," says Dhaka-based @samsulalamhelal_. What people couldn’t do outside, they did in the studio. There’s a photo of a woman riding a motorbike with her boyfriend sitting in the back. In Bangladesh, that’s not possible."
Helal says his technicolor photos capture the dreams stifled by people who move to the city from small villages. Faced with the monotony of factory work, the desire to see a village goat just one more time is understandable—as is the fantasy of riding away from it all on a motorbike.
“Most people migrate to Dhaka from the villages. They come to Dhaka with big dreams,” explains Helal. “But from my observations, that doesn’t happen. Dhaka is like a trap for these people. They can’t even go back to the villages because they sold their land.”
