About the Item

This Nuer man from the far west of Ethiopia was displaced from South Sudan. He has the characteristic six forehead line scars of his group and the most beautiful pattern of dots and curved forms I came across in this region. Facial scarring as extensive as this now appears quite rare in Africa. John Kenny’s work is all shot on location in some of the remotest corners of Africa. His images are all taken with natural light and in their day to day attire. John Kenny’s black and white photographic portraits are taken on location in some of the remotest corners of Africa and India. All shot with natural light and with the subjects in their day to day attire they reveal the pride and strength inherent in tradional ways of life. The C-type prints are mounted with an acrylic face mount giving them a 3-dimensional appearance and a very contemporary feel. Edition of 25 Presentation: Acrylic face mounted C-type print Signed by the Artist Certificate of Authenticity Country – Ethiopia and South Sudan Culture – Nuer Year – 2009 Size - 26.5" x 18"
