Nguecokh
Nguecokh - Photographer Tom Huber and graphic designer Christof Nüssli travel to the small Senegalese village of Nguecokh in the Saloum Delta, about 200 kilometers south of Dakar. They return with fascinating portraits full of mystical and poetic beauty, a rare insight into rural West African life from an isolated sub-Saharan settlement – and many questions. For months, they exchange voice messages with their host Mamadou, the village teacher. They discuss climate change, polygamy and religion. He describes the challenges of the education and health systems and tells old folk songs about trees and woods, and traces Nguecokh's path to the future; color photos.
