 Marwari Horses

In my eyes horses represent that which is beautiful and sacred in nature.

In particular, the noble Marwari horses from India have captured my

attention. Known for their loyalty and bravery, the Marwari were

considered divine beings as far back as the twelfth century. Victimized by

difficult economic times, poor horse management, and global warming, the

Marwari horse population was decimated by the mid-1990’s.


With my photography I present imaginary moments with the Marwari to create

unspoken stories about these once mistreated creatures. The Marwari horse

series illustrates both the struggle for survival and the hope for

prosperity among children and animals who are both innocent and often the

victims of exploitation.
