Photographer Shows the Poor but Stunningly Colorful Streets of India

India is a beautiful, mystical and friendly place. Swiss graphic designer Alexandre Pietra decided to show those qualities of India during his exploration there. Through his stunning and powerful series of photographs called “Colours of India”, Alexandre is showing us the spirit of street life in this magnificent country. Although, many of these people and towns are very poor, the power of their spirits will never fade away. That is exactly what the photographer wanted to enhance. In his images the people in the streets are constantly smiling, just enjoying the life they have, not paying too much attention to the material things. They have what they need, and that is enough for them to be happy. That should be a lesion for the greedy people around the world. With the little that they have, they are trying to create the colorful surrounding. Every house and every wall is painted with the bright color, making the street view astonishing. It is like living in a huge painting.
