Polly Fenton, Suri tribal woman (People)

The Suri tribe is nestled in one of the toughest and most remote places on earth, near the Ethiopian/Sudanese border. They take great pride and joy in decorating their bodies, using body paint of different ochres, body scarification, lip and ear plates plus flowers or various recycled materials in their hair. They are a friendly and engaging tribe with a great sense of humour.
