About the Artist

Gauri Gill (born 1970) is one of India’s most significant contemporary photographers, known for her sustained and deeply empathetic approach to image-making. Over decades, she has cultivated relationships with rural and indigenous communities, most notably in Rajasthan, allowing her to create nuanced and collaborative photographic series. Her work transcends conventional documentary, often blurring the lines between art and anthropology, and focusing on the intimate lives of individuals. Gill’s photography critically examines social structures, gender, and marginalization, while celebrating the dignity, resilience, and creative expressions of those often overlooked in mainstream narratives.
