Kainaz finds beauty and grace in the ordinary; the simple moments that string together to create a lifetime. For her, life is not only defined by superlatives. It is the moments in between, the gestures never seen, the silent stories heard – capturing and conveying these glimpses of humanity is what moves her as photojournalist and storyteller.
TribalTruth is pleased to present Kainaz Amaria’s photographs. The images featured are a collection of moments and landscapes taken by Kainaz throughout India. They offer the viewer a unique intimacy and insight into Indian daily life.
