PORTFOLIO: THE YOUNG ONES

 

India as a whole has a special unity, which children are reminded of daily for example by singing the national anthem in school. But this huge country is hosting lots of different traditions, cultures, tribes etc., too. So all of these have to master a balance between their own unique heritage and the change into a globalised modern world. For taking responsible decisions of how one wants to continue in society, it is important to know about the cultural roots, its uniqueness and the values in it. Taking photos is a good way to document and think about the lifestyle.

 

Especially the children and youth are challenged by the temptations of modernisation and the security of the traditional lifestyle.
