Genesi is the result of an epic eight-year expedition to rediscover the mountains, deserts and oceans, the animals and peoples that have so far escaped the imprint of modern society. The Genesi project is dedicated to showing the beauty of our planet, reversing the damage done to it, and preserving it for the future. Over 30 trips - travelled by foot, light aircraft, seagoing vessels, canoes, and even balloons, through extreme heat and cold and in sometimes dangerous conditions - Salgado created a collection of images showing us nature, animals, and indigenous peoples in breathtaking beauty.
