Visible Work, Invisible Women is a fully curated, online still-photo exhibition. This video tour takes viewers around the entire physical exhibition, with original photographs and texts reproduced below as an article. All the photographs were shot by P. Sainath across 10 Indian states between 1993 and 2002. These roughly span the first decade of the economic reform and end two years before the launch of the National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme.
