Photos from the Field

My project consisted of collecting the narrative of Valmiki women in Ahmedabad City. While collecting and listening to their stories during my daily trips to their homes, places of employment and communities I made a point to try to capture visually moments of connection, individuals who I had particularly unique relationships with and the women who I worked with. Below are a selection of photos captured in Ahmedabad City over the course of my fellowship experience.
