Abstract
Visual culture attempts to expose that other facet of the world which almost hitherto remainsconcealed from the majority of the populace. This is because the people across the globe werefed with the visual images that largely went on a par with the interests of the white Europeans. Inother words, Visual culture views the world from a “subaltern” perspective and challenges thenorms set by “a white European Christian male” centric outlook. To put it simply, visual culturestudies and interprets the world, which is made up of visual images, from the point of view ofmarginalized, the suppressed or the disadvantaged. In this connection, the study of visual cultureenjoys a close affiliation with feminism and critical race theory.
