Setrawa
“I loved shooting in Setrawa. I was taken in by the quiet dignity of these women, with all they endure. In Setrawa, many of the women seemed to be there just to be together, to support each other. I just wanted to try to capture that.”

All throughout our visits to the Sambhali Trust Empowerment Centres, we met lots of kids. We were reminded that kids are kids, no matter where you go in the world - curious, playful and full of energy. While life around them is hard, due to the poverty and discrimination they face, the time spent at Sambhali provides respite and a opportunity to learn and play.
They were also keen to be photographed and know how to pose for the camera!
