The Congo Basin in Central Africa harbors approximately one quarter
of the world's rainforest. In the heart of this forest is
Odzala-Kokoua National Park, an ecological wonderland that is home
to untold numbers of rare gorillas, forest elephants, and birds. It
is also home to people who have lives vastly different from much of
the rest of the world. In this stunning photographic series, Pieter
Henket presents images of the children of Odzala- Kokoua telling
the oral history of the Congo in enchanting and creative ways. Shot
over the course of a month, Henket documented the children of this
remote region as they designed, planned, created costumes for, and
acted out a series of myths- about their tribes, their landscape,
and the animals and plants that they live among. Their stories will
educate others unfamiliar with a way of life that is so completely
in harmony with nature. Filled with vibrant images that highlight
the area's magnificent flora and fauna, this photographic project,
which was three years in the planning and execution, offers an
exciting opportunity to learn about nature and the environment and
it delivers an optimistic message about trust, cooperation, and
conservation for the next generation of policy makers.
