The tribes people's way of life is
largely untainted by modern life, although the extent to which some of the
bleaker elements of civilisation are creeping into their world is apparent in
another photograph in which a young boy, his body and face decorated with clay
paint poses proudly with a toy gun made of wood.
The incredible photographs which
capture the way of life for the 200,000 tribal people who call the lower Omo
Valley home were taken by photographer Hans Silvester and have been published
in a new book: 'Natural Fashion: Tribal Decoration from Africa', published by
Thames and Hudson.
The book highlights the ways of the
Omo tribes who live close to nature with their painted faces, scarified bodies
and extravagant headdresses with plants and feathers cleverly combined.
