Through the Eyes
Jaimal Odedra
«The portraits in this book cover a range of ages and faces, from places
over a period of a decade in Delwara, India, and the surrounding
villages. Each person gazed directly into the lens, with a sense of total
trust. There is serenity and frankness in their glance and a certain
glimmer in their eyes, reflecting their existence and soul through their
subtle expressions. These faces define the places they belong to, and they
express the richness of their pure and simple, yet fulfilled lives.»
