Bright, murals cover the corrugated metal walls of Sassoon Dock, turning a working fishing hub into a massive outdoor gallery. Built in eighteen seventy-five, this was the first wet dock in Mumbai. While trawlers still unload thousands of tons of fish here each day, artists from around the world painted these surfaces to reflect the lives of the Koli fishing community. A portrait of a fisherman staring out from a rusted warehouse wall captures the grit behind this city landmark.
