From time to time we discover corners and cultures of our world that leave us breathless, amazed. This is what happened to us in Natura Thanks to the photographs of Hans Silvester, who has managed to capture like nobody the beauty and art exhibited by the Surma and Mursi tribes on their bodies.
The people of the OMO Valley, in Ethiopia, are authentic artists: they paint their bodies with natural pigments made from the earth and the rocks, decorate their heads with fruits and plants present in nature. A daily act that is both an essential expression of their lives.
The portraits of the German photographer are practically a work of art in themselves. We hope you enjoy these images and get carried away by extraordinary strength, shocking in their beauty and originality.
