◈ BEFORE THEY PASS AWAY ◈


⥤◈⥢ A mesmerizing tribute ⥤◈⥢


Yesterday we had a lovely meet and greet with photographer Jimmy Nelson.  Inspired by the cultures of the world Jimmy Nelson travelled the world in two adventurous years in search of the last indigenous cultures and tribes in there amazing habitats. With the purpose to photograph them. The result is the book "Before they pass away" a tribute to the unique tribes and cultures of the world. To share this heritage with the world in the hope the world will realize these cultures are world heritage to be protected and preserved otherwise they pass away.

He has got incredible stories of his adventures in often the most extraordinary circumstances while photographing this mesmerizing tribute to these beautiful last indigenous cultures and tribes. This amazing tribute is the beginning of a unfinished journey. This book consists 35 indigenous tribes. He is already preparing a new adventure in search of more indigenous cultures and tribes.  And he plans to go back to all the tribes he has met to present them the book, showing them and telling them of other unique cultures and tribes of the world. We are totally mesmerized by his work. And looking forward to his new projects. We are honored to have met Jimmy Nelson, listening to his amazing stories, seeing the first footage of his documentary and having (off course) our book signed. Jaai!!! ♥
