2017 Shansi Prize Winner: Sarah Chatta
Sarah's project grew out of the fifteen oral histories she collected over two months in India on a Shansi In-Asia Grant during the summer of 2014. The personal stories explore the impact of the 1947 Partition on individual lives and are a combination of oral and written histories, ethnography and memoir.
