The October issue of ID magazine has an article written by Terry Jones and images by David Bailey. Jones interviews Bailey about when he travelled to the Oceanic island of Papua New Guinea in 1974. He lived for two weeks amongst cannibals and bow-and-arrow carrying tribes. "They treated me ok, but didn't make me feel relaxed" he says.
The interview states that the way of life for them is out of this world for us. Something unthinkable. Eating other humans and unknowingly giving themselves brian damage from it. They didn't understand a polaroid or it's use. To them its useless, they thought it was a broken mirror.
More than anything the images stroke me the most. They are all so beautiful and so real. These are real people, they aren't set up for camera. The amount of effort for their appearance is somewhat outstanding.
I am going to use these images as inspiration to try makeup ideas for myself. I like how the application isn't perfect and you can see every brush stroke.
