A fascinating insight into ten years of Jason Scott Tilley's odyssey throughout India, the country of his grandfather, Bert Scott.

People of India was exhibited at the Herbert Museum in 2014-15

This project brought Jason to international renown: an exhibition at the Herbert Art Gallery reflects the odyssey he undertook over ten years travelling and photographing in India, rediscovering his roots and reflecting on India today. This includes a documentary for Channel 4 with his grandfather, Bert Scott. Reviewed by Grain.

Jason’s blog of this project is here with a large selection of his photos presented by Galli Magazine
