entry description
In the south of Burkina Faso lies the Royal Court village of Tiébélé. The walls of its unique curved mud houses resemble canvases of abstract patterns, forms, designs and reliefs painted each year by the women of the village after the rainy season. These forms are said to be the inspiration of Modernist architect Le Corbusier for his timeless works.about the photographer
Although a Civil Engineer in profession, I turned out as an amateur travel photographer having traveled to numerous countries around the world such as Ethiopia, India, Burkina Faso, Indonesia, Cote d'Ivoire, China, Peru, Bolivia, Brazil, Papua New Guinea, Mali, Benin, Haiti, Cuba etc. My main goal is to capture the uniqueness of the local cultures and the life of the people in the most remote places of our world. My pictures have been awarded multiple awards in many prestigious photo competitions and have been published in many books and magazines. Recently graduated Anthropology of Religions at UCLA.back to gallery
