Irish Traveller - image: Sebastian Hesse-Kastein

People can’t live without other people. We are with each other, we observe each other, we love each other and we hate each other. That’s why ohoh.store is paying homage to people by offering twelve postcards featuring images of people at the very affordable price of €0.60.

The photographic documentary ‘Irish Travellers’ depicts the daily life of an ethnic group, originally from Ireland, who lead a nomadic existence on the British Isles. They earn their living mainly by trading horses at horse markets. Opposition from government bodies, intolerance and land rights issues are causing their nomadic way of life to disappear.

Sebastian Hesse-Kastein makes photo documentaries alongside his work as a journalist for the German Broadcasting Corporation. His long-term projects are about small communities that maintain their own traditions and way of life and do not follow the rules of globalisation.
