These are different than what we come to expect to see from Joey, who had accustomed us to environmental portraits of endangered tribes people, whether in Ethiopia or Indonesia. This latest crop of incredibly beautiful photographs have been posed, and the subjects set against a simple black background. According to Joey, these will be part of a fine art book with all his work from the Omo Valley.
The tribes depicted in this series are the Karo, the Nyangatom, the Mursi, the Daasanac. the Hamer and the Arbore.
Joey used a PhaseOne/Mamiya 646 with a 80mm prime lens, a light setup and a collapsible reflector. The combination of the medium format and the lighting technique produced these remarkable results.
