Ash and Dust
Portrait of a Mundari child rubbing on himself with ash (South Sudan).
The Mundari are cattle herders who live in symbiosis with their Ankole Watusi cattle, characterized by their large horns.
Children are doing most of the daily work collecting the fresh cow dung and putting it into piles which are then set on fire to repel the (extremely) numerous and voracious mosquitoes of the area.
They also use the ash created by the fires to rub on themselves and their cattle, as a further protection against mosquitoes.

Paper: Fuji Crystal Archive, matte
Mounting: Photo print on Aluminum Dibond 3mm (0.12")
