INTIMATE PORTRAITS OF AFRICAN TRIBES
A German photographer travelled around Africa where he met and photographed members of tribes in a series of intimate portraits. From wearing animal skin clothing to living in huts made from cow dung, the traditional tribal lifestyle witnessed by Mario Gerth, of Erfurt, is a far cry from modern western civilization. The 38-year-old photographer toured the continent of Africa over a period of seven years, allowing him to visit a number of countries, including Kenya, Ethiopia and Angola.
