Photographing the World’s Most Remote Indigenous Cultures Before They Fade Away
With each working journey photographer Jimmy Nelson, an Englishman based in the Netherlands, takes, he finds himself engaged in a more competitive race against time. “I'm finding it harder to discover cultures that are not at risk by the homogenizing forces of a globalizing world,” he says of his frequent travels to far-off corners of the planet. “Mankind is at the risk of losing its cultural diversity.”
