About Prasiit Sthapit

Prasiit Sthapit (b. 1988) is a visual storyteller based in Kathmandu whose work deals with societies at the borderline, both literally and figuratively. Through photography, he chooses to show the experiences he has shared with the people in his pictures, and what they mean to him.

He graduated from Manipal Institute of Communication, India with a Bachelors in Arts (Journalism and Communication) and was a recipient of the Dr. TMAPai Gold Medal for Best Outgoing Student 2010. That is when he decided journalism was not for him and started looking for other avenues to tell the stories he wanted the world to hear.

He is currently associated Fuzz Factory Productions, a multimedia collective based in Kathmandu.
