Ben, North African "berber".
Originating from the mountains that link Morocco and Algeria, he grew up in a society deeply affected by the aftermath of Algeria's war of independence.
He opened up to us, allowing us to understand his past. We seized the moment and shot a series of portraits of him. If tattoos tell stories, then this is one hell of a story.
