The Sapphire Circuit 2021 was organised by the Artists Forum of Kolkata. This was the first circuit I entered in December 2019 and before I started my PSA/FIAP salon hiatus in 2022 I decided to try out some of my latest images.
There were four salons in this circuit and I achieved 24 Acceptances and one Jury’s Choice.
