Gregory Colbert - Ashes and Snow





Animal Copyright Launch Speech




Gregory Colbert dedicated ten years filming and photographing in a very poetic way the relation of humans and animals across places like India, Burma, Sri Lanka, Egypt, Dominica, Ethiopia, Kenya, Tonga, Namibia, and Antarctica.
This work culminated on a film and a group of pictures with the name of Ashes and Snow, that is gathered on a nomadic museum that travels the world,
He is also engaged in a project , the animal copyright , that tries to make corporations pay a fee for using animals on their commercials, like any actor would charge.

I have bought one of the hand made books of this work, and I've seen the movie, and i can say that it is a soul engaging experience. I recommend to everyone that at least one time in life to have this experience.
