Working in the tradition of documentary photography, narrative and committed reportage, Ferhat Bouda bears witness, preferably in black and white, taking the time needed to go beyond appearances and the clichés that too often obscure his subjects. In Kabylia, among Azawad activists or in Germany where he is based, he focuses on minorities: from Berbers to nomadic peoples such as the Tuareg and Mongols. Published in the "Cahier" series of facsimile working notebooks, this book opens up the intimacy of his creative process through sketches, notes and contact sheets.
