Painted Karo Boy

Painted Karo Boy is one in a series of incredible photographic images taken by Mario Gerth on his travels through Africa where he visited many of the indigenous tribes staying with families along the way exploring their rituals, culture and individual personalities. This is the first image I encountered of Mario Gerth’s work and it grabbed by attention immediately. The bold image of the boy’s face painted in white , the intensity and shape of his face against the dark background – what a composition! Beautiful and powerful at the same time.

Mario Gerth is a world class German photographer who has pursued his passion by documenting his travels through 80 different countries across the globe. My heart literally skipped a beat when I saw these images for the first time. They are powerful and entrancing with a softness of light and richness of texture that emerges boldly from the dark background making it seem almost possible to reach out and touch the skin of the person in the photograph.
