Primitive Culture is the global photographic journal of an amateur ethnographer, detailing explorations from rugged Equatorial jungles, to the markets of Bangkok, to the alleys of Istanbul, to the quiet seaside towns of South Africa. In fully illustrated essays, Primitive Culture chronicles street-food, coffee culture, wildlife viewing, and urban life.
