World Press Photo Award 2016
On August 11, 2015, Kherou Ngor pours cow milk over his head and body. He performs this ritual in the water at the shore of Ngor, Dakar, in order to obtain the spiritual support of a ghost who lives in the stones at the shore. Cow milk and magic potions are omnipresent in the wrestling arenas of Senegal, where vodoo and gris-gris rituals are a undisposable part of the show for the audience.
