Faces: Weaving Indian Jewish Narratives
Fulbright Project - 2011
Siona's project proposal is to raise western awareness about the long standing history of the Indian Jewish communities in India by documenting, using photography and painting, the individual faces and stories of this ancient group of India.
Above are more Indian Jewish portraits. - I photographed a few shamash (lamp lighters) in synagogues around Mumbai. - Below that are some JCC youth in Mumbai - Next is a portrait of George Judah in Pune - The Penkars standing in the doorway of the old synagogue in Pen - And last on this list is a sweet mother daughter who live in Mumbai, Mozel and Monica.
