“These portraits by the photographer Jean-Baptiste Huynh have one quality in common : through his deliberate renunciation of interpretation, it si children, women and men themselves who are revealed to us. These photographs are documents of their existence. They permit encounters with humans beings who tell us in an unspectacular way : I am - in Africa, in Mali, in the inland of the Niger Delta , in an archaic world - and they stand for all the human beings, all the peoples who generally go unnoticed. Who are born, suffer and die from the globalised world and who have so far escaped the kitsch associated with the fashions of wester consumerism .“
