PAKISTAN KABADDI WRESTLERS
JOE BUERGI 2SERIES

"Kabaddi has come a long way since its beginnings and is now played throughout Pakistan, including Sindh and Khyber Pakhtunkhawa, albeit with different tactics. Kabaddi is a contact team sport played between two teams and multiple players. It can be considered a unique blend of many modern games, such as grappling, running, karate and athletics.

TURKANA KENYA

"LAKE TURKANA IS FOUND IN THE KENYAN RIFT VALLEY, IN NORTHERN KENYA, WITH ITS FAR NORTHERN END CROSSING INTO ETHIOPIA. IT IS THE WORLD'S LARGEST PERMANENT DESERT LAKE AND THE WORLD'S LARGEST ALKALINE LAKE.

THE OMO, TURKWEL, AND KERIO RIVERS FLOW INTO THE LAKE, BUT LACKING OUTFLOW, ITS ONLY WATER LOSS IS BY EVAPORATION. DUE TO TEMPERATURE, ARIDITY, AND GEOGRAPHIC INACCESSIBILITY, THE LAKE RETAINS ITS WILD CHARACTER. IT IS A DISCREET OASIS WITH A SPECIAL ATMOSPHERE OF TRANQUILLITY AND A HALCYON SPIRIT.

JOE BUERGI

Born in 1965 in Stans, Switzerland, Joe Buergi started around 2000 with photography. He studied engineering at the Bale Institute of Technology and now works full-time as a project and team leader for the local government. As a pure autodidact, he developed the knowledge by himself but also by studying the masters. His music photography, together with travel, have become two of his life's passions.

His photography focuses on music, culture, landscapes, and wildlife, images that reflect a spatial and temporal journey through life. He seeks the quiet moments and the light in whatever context he finds himself.
