EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in the ancient village of Kamanjab, Namibia, where a Himba woman is preparing smoke to deodorize herself. The Himba tribe is known for their traditional way of life and unique customs, which have been passed down through generations.
In this image, the woman is surrounded by her tribal huts and nature's beauty as she carefully tends to the smoke that will cleanse and purify her body. Her traditional dress and jewelry reflect the rich cultural heritage of the Himba people, adding to the authenticity of this scene.
The use of herbs and natural elements for deodorant purposes showcases the resourcefulness and connection to nature that defines many indigenous communities around the world. It is a reminder of simpler times when people relied on what they could find in their surroundings for everyday needs.
This photograph not only captures a moment in time but also serves as a window into a world that many may never have the opportunity to experience firsthand. It is a testament to the resilience and strength of women like her who continue to uphold traditions despite modern influences creeping into their lives.
