This was greatly inspired by the native African tribal peoples who live on the river Omo, they paint their faces with beautiful colours and decorarte their bodies with al kinds of seed pods and stick and flowers. Hans Sylvester spent three years photographing them and has since published an outstanding book detailing this interesting way of life in the African wilds.
