Far beyond the hectic concrete jungle of modern life, there exists a parallel reality, an unspoiled world where people still see and feel things in their purest and most innocent forms. It is a way of experiencing the world that is perhaps as old as human consciousness itself. This book takes us on a mesmerizing journey to the farthest reaches of the globe, to remote locations non-existent on maps, to places unattainable by modern transport, deep into the heart of the earth, where the true essence of the human spirit remains preserved.

Photographer Sacha Dean Biyan began this project seven years ago as a result of his lifelong fascination with tribal cultures and his commitment to raise people’s awareness of basic human rights issues. What began as a simple photo-documentary of his travels around the world evolved into a spiritual journey, taking him back to the very root of humanity.
