The Himalayas. The chain of mountains which includes the highest peaks in the world, like the mount Everest. In these mountains lives at the Séchèn monastery, Matthieu Ricard , Buddhist monk, official interpreter of French for the Dalai Lama and photographer. A life spent in this intimacy allows him to capture, through his lens, the masters, the landscapes and the population of this isolated region of the world of which he takes a magnificent portrait. YellowKorner takes you on a trip to the Himalayas with Matthieu Ricard to help you discover the most beautiful snapshots of these mountain landscapes.

Monaco buddista e neurobiologo, Matthieu Ricard è anche fotografo e autore e condivide con noi, da molti anni, le grandiose bellezze della regione himalayana. Nato nel 1946, si recò per la prima volta in India nel 1967 e in questa occasione conobbe notevoli maestri della tradizione buddista tibetana. Una vita trascorsa in questa intimità gli permette di catturare, attraverso il suo obiettivo, i maestri, i paesaggi e le popolazioni di questa isolata regione del mondo di cui dipinge un magnifico ritratto. Matthieu Ricard è autore di numerosi lavori fotografici tra cui “The Spirit of Tibet”, “Buddist Himalaya, Tibet: Regards of Compassion”, “A Still Journey” e “Dancing Monks of Tibet and Bhutan: Land of Serenity”. Le sue fotografie sono state esposte a New York, Parigi, Perpignan, Winthertour, Stoccolma e Hong Kong.
