The German photographer’s collection of images of Indian people affected by albinism, of various ages and sex. All those photographed were also interviewed by the Indian sociologist Tejas Joseph, in order to delineate a new conception of “genius loci’s identity”. The work underlines the contradictions of a too schematic cultural representation: in fact it would not be easy to recognise instinctively the origin or the cultural identity of the portraits, Indian but physically similar to the populations of northern Europe.
