Back to collection Phil Borges Enduring Spirit Collection - Indonesia
|
Aldo 10, Erpi 7, Rosie 7
Tana Toraja, Indonesia Aldo and his friends had just spent the morning washing two of his family’s water buffalo in the river. When he turned eight, Aldo was given the responsibility of tending the two buffalo. Valued at close to $800 each, they represent more than one-third of his parents’ wealth. They will both be slaughtered at his uncle’s funeral in two months. The funeral is being delayed until the last rice-harvest ceremony is completed, so as not to mix the rites of life with those of death. Toraja Collection: Enduring Spirit - Indonesia Artist: Photographer Phil Borges Medium: black and white fine art photography collection Finish: Framed These beautiful black and white fine art photography of people portrait of indigenous cultures are the trademark of humanitarian photographer Phil Borges.
