Kunnath set out on a road trip to meet each of the bodybuilders where they lived, taking them “out of their gym or workout spaces to a more recognizable Indian backdrop, dressed in traditional outfits, not only to make it relatable to women back in India, but also to juxtapose their powerful physiques with a familiar space and look.” Kunnath photographed the women against serene beaches; resting on a patch of grass in front of a lake; posing against a quintessential Keralan home with a terracotta-tiled roof.
