During his many journeys in east Africa, Gilles Perrin met the Mursi and the Surma, peoples of the Omo valley in Ethiopia. Over several years he recorded these women and men who carry on ancestral ways of living, building a gallery of black and white portraits of the last naked warriors. The images were made with a large camera on black and white Polaroid film between 2005 and 2008.

ABOUT

SpineIndex is a digital platform dedicated to independent photobooks, photography publications, design books, and self-published editions — the kind of work that rarely makes it into bookshop windows or mainstream catalogues. It exists to document, connect, and keep visible a world of publishers, artists, and makers who operate outside conventional distribution. A living reference for anyone who takes this territory seriously — collectors, researchers, students, and the simply curious.
