Indian photographer Gauri Gill has won the prestigious Prix Pictet, a global award for photography and sustainability, for a portfolio of images captured in rural Rajasthan.
A child standing barefoot, seemingly playing with a bag over their head; an old woman sticking her tongue out during an medical examination; a family sitting in an empty room on Holi Day, staring into the camera; a girl hanging upside down from a tree, her head in another girl’s hands. For a portfolio that included these images captured in rural Rajasthan, Indian photographer Gauri Gill has won the prestigious Prix Pictet, a global award for photography and sustainability.
Each of its 10 editions has focused on a different facet of sustainability and this year’s competition was themed “Human.” Eleven other portfolios of work were shortlisted for the award. They included Ragnar Axelsson’s series of photos depicting Inuit hunters and Nenet reindeer-hunters, whose ways of life are being threatened by the climate crisis, and Siân Davey’s images capturing visitors to her back garden, all in various poses among the wildflowers.
