Why do we travel ? Harry Fisch Private Portfolio
Harry Fisch

What is it that makes you travel all around the world? Eight years and 750.000 miles later. I still haven’t found the answer… Many of those images have even been taken while on a Nomad Photo Tour . They are the result of many years of work and repeated visits.
As travelers we are exposed to icons and cliches expressing popular and common thoughts on how a Chinese should look like or how should an Ethiopian tribe be. There is an irony in what is shown to the viewer, a joke where the importance given to the iconic appearance is a camouflage of the underlying reality.
