The Sands of Time

Spanning from the south of Namibia to Angola, the Skeleton Coast is one of the harshest places on earth. This 300-mile eerie coastline, dubbed "the Gate of Hell" by Portuguese sailors, is strewn with shipwrecks and bleached bones, reminding us of civilization's impermanence.

The golden dunes of the Namib Desert meet the pounding surf of the dark blue Atlantic Ocean, creating a stark yet captivating landscape. Despite our belief in bending the world to our will, the Skeleton Coast serves as a powerful rebuttal, showcasing the impermanence of our reign.

About Thibault:

As a self-taught photographer and avid traveler, I embarked on a mission to utilize my photography to support charitable causes.

Joining the board of directors for The Forgotten International in 2019, I sought to leverage my skills to raise funds for those in need.
Through the sale of books and prints, I aimed to shed light on the struggles faced by communities in developing countries and contribute to meaningful projects.
Through my photography, I strive to inspire others, evoke emotions, and make a positive impact on the world around me.
