Nomadic Radiance: The Himba Chronicles

This photographic series captures the Himbas, Namibia's last nomadic tribe at the Angola frontier, resilient amidst war and drought. From afar, they seem mirage-like in the desert, ochre-adorned skin radiating a copper glow—a protective shield against the harsh sun.

About Artist

Thibault Gerbaldi

Hello, I am thibault! As a self-taught photographer and avid traveler, I embarked on a mission to utilize my photography to support charitable causes. Joining the board of directors for The Forgotten International in 2019, I sought to leverage my skills to raise funds for those in need. Through the sale of books and prints, I aimed to shed light on the struggles faced by communities in developing countries and contribute to meaningful projects. Through my photography, I strive to inspire others, evoke emotions, and make a positive impact on the world around me.
