    Tribal Asia: Ceremonies, Rituals and Dress
    • 2004

      Exploring the customs of tribal Asia reveals a deep connection to nature and the challenges posed by modern civilization. The book showcases the rich diversity in clothing, jewelry, and body art, which serve various cultural purposes, from representing social status to spiritual beliefs. Over fifteen years, the authors have documented the lives of forgotten tribes, including the Bedouins and Tsaatan, through rare rituals and festivals. Accompanied by striking photographs, this work offers a poignant glimpse into the endangered lifestyles of these ancient communities.
