Strawman / Muria – Gutrapara, Chhattisgarh from Adivasi - A Homage to Tribal India by Montreal-born photographer Marcus Leatherdale.
Adivasi translates to "first dweller, ". There are over 100 million tribals living outside of the Hindu caste society in India. Their origins precede the Vedic Aryans and the Dravidians of the south. The Adivasi still speak tribal languages not understood by the dominant Hindus, and they follow archaic customs foreign to both Hindus and Muslims alike.
