Honorable Mention
Monkey-Man
DESCRIPTION
On the suburbs of New Delhi, lies the slum of Kathputli, a place which hundreds of India's street artists call home. Wandering along the maze of alleys it is impossible not to encounter a monkey-man, a fire-eater, an acrobat. AUTHOR
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, emphasizing on syncretism between rare religions and rituals. My pictures have been awarded multiple awards in many prestigious photo competitions and have been published in many books and magazines.
