indigenous

I can't believe it: no studio, no art director, no stylist, no makeup artist, no hair guy, nobody inhaling a nervous cigarette trying to pull this look together... Just children doing what they do so naturally, with ease and poise and with absolutely impeccable freedom, harmony and genius — for genius is born, not learned (and is related to "indigenous"). When I first discovered these I felt I was witnessing some of the greatest art the earth can offer. By that I mean the art of the makeup/styling, though the honor of seeing these glorious human beings is given to us by photographer Hans Silvester. A heartfelt thanks indeed.
