Thought Provoking Photos of India That Present a Gritty Landscape Juxtaposed Against a Perfectly Posed Frame

Child Labor

Broken India” by Limitless is a thought-provoking photo series that provides the context of a gritty Indian landscape shown in black-and-white outside a perfectly posed scene in color. While this project is similar to Chompoo Baritone’s Instagram project, it contains neither the levity nor the satire of “Slow Life“. Instead, images of child labor, monsoon wreckage and litter are juxtaposed against smiling faces and depictions of happier times.
