Jimmy Nelson: Gorgeous portraits of the world's vanishing people

Prevoditelj: Jasna Matek Recezent: Ivan Stamenković

Now, I've been making pictures for quite a long time,

Bavim se fotografijom već duže vrijeme

and normally speaking, a picture like this, for me,

i u pravilu bi slika poput ove, što se mene tiče,

should be straightforward.

trebala biti izravna.

I'm in southern Ethiopia. I'm with the Daasanach.

Nalazim se u južnoj Etiopiji, s plemenom Daasanach.

There's a big family, there's a very beautiful tree,

Tu je velika obitelj, predivno stablo,

and I make these pictures with this very large,

a ja radim ove slike pomoću tog velikog, nezgrapnog

extremely cumbersome, very awkward technical plate film camera.

fotoaparata s pločama.

Does anybody know 4x5 and 10x8 sheets of film,

Imate stranice filma 4x5 i 10x8

and you're setting it up, putting it on the tripod.

i namještate sve, stavljate fotoaparat na stalak.

I've got the family, spent the better part of a day talking with them.

Obitelj je tu i proveo sam dobar dio dana pričajući s njima.

They sort of understand what I'm on about.

Otprilike razumiju što namjeravam.

They think I'm a bit crazy, but that's another story.

Misle da sam malo lud, ali to je drugo.

And what's most important for me is the beauty and the aesthetic,

Ono što mi je najvažnije je ljepota i estetika,

and that's based on the light.

a to se temelji na svjetlu.

So the light's setting on my left-hand side,

Svjetlo zalazi s moje lijeve strane

and there's a balance in the communication with the Daasanach,

i postoji ravnoteža u komunikaciji s grupom Daasanach.

the family of 30, all ages.

Obitelj od 30 članova, svih godišta.

There's babies and there's grandparents,

Ima beba i djedova i baka.

I'm getting them in the tree and waiting for the light to set,

Namještam ih i čekam da svijetlo zađe

and it's going, going, and I've got one sheet of film left,

i zalazi, zalazi, a ja imam još jednu ploču filma

and I think, I'm okay, I'm in control, I'm in control.

i mislim - dobro je, pod kontrolom, sve je pod kontrolom.

I'm setting it up and I'm setting up, and the light's just about to go,

Namještam i namještam a sunce samo što nije zašlo

and I want it to be golden, I want it to be beautiful.

i želim da bude zlatno, želim da bude predivno.

I want it to be hanging on the horizon so it lights these people,

Želim da bude nisko na horizontu tako da obasja te ljude

in all the potential glory that they could be presented.

u svoj mogućoj veličanstvenosti u kojoj se mogu prikazati.

I samo što nije, samo što nije,

And it's about to go and it's about to go,

i stavim film u fotoaparat,

and I put my sheet in the camera,

it's all focused,

sve je u fokusu i odjednom čuje se

and all of a sudden there's a massive "whack,"

glasni "pljas!"

and I'm looking around, and in the top corner of the tree,

i ogledavam se, a na vrhu stabla

one of the girls slaps the girl next to her,

jedna djevojčica udari onu kraj sebe

and the girl next to her pulls her hair, and all hell breaks loose,

a ta povuče prvu za kosu i izbije rat,

and I'm standing there going, "But the light, the light.

a ja stojim tamo moleći "Ali svjetlo, svjetlo.

Wait, I need the light. Stay still! Stay still!"

Čekajte, treba mi svjetlo. Mirno! Budite mirno!"

And they start screaming,

Oni počnu urlati,

and then one of the men turns around and starts screaming, shouting,

onda i jedan od muškaraca počne vikati

and the whole tree collapses, not the tree, but the people in the tree.

i cijelo stablo se sruši, ne stablo, ali ljudi na stablu.

They're all running around screaming, and they run back off into the village

Trče unaokolo, viču i otrče natrag u selo

u nekakvom oblaku dima, a ja ostanem tamo iza svoga stalka.

in this sort of cloud of smoke, and I'm left there standing behind my tripod.

Imam svoj film, ali nema svjetla i ne mogu napraviti sliku.

I've got my sheet, and the light's gone, and I can't make the picture.

Kamo su svi otišli? Pojma nemam.

Where have they all gone? I had no idea.

Tjedan dana mi je trebalo za ovu sliku.

It took me a week, it took me a week to make the picture which you see here today,

and I'll tell you why. (Applause)

Reći ću vam zašto. (Pljesak)

It's very, very, very simple -- I spent a week going around the village,

Jako, jako, jako jednostavno -- tjedan dana sam šetao po selu

and I went to every single one: "Hello, can you meet at the tree?

i svakome sam rekao: "Bog, nađemo se kod stabla?"

What's your story? Who are you?"

Koja je tvoja priča? Tko si ti?"

And it all turned out to be about a boyfriend, for crying out loud.

Sve je to bilo zbog dečka!

I mean, I have teenage kids. I should know.

Mislim, imam djecu tinejdžere. Trebao bih znati.

It was about a boyfriend. The girl on the top, she'd kissed the wrong boy,

Sve zbog dečka. Cura je poljubila krivoga

and they'd started having a fight.

i počele su se tući.

And there was a very, very beautiful lesson for me in that:

I tu je za mene predivna lekcija:

If I was going to photograph these people

Ako sam htio fotografirati te ljude

in the dignified, respectful way that I had intended,

na dostojanstven način, pun poštivanja,

and put them on a pedestal, I had to understand them.

staviti ih na postolje, morao sam ih razumjeti.

It wasn't just about turning up. It wasn't just about shaking a hand.

Nije bitno samo pojaviti se i rukovati se.

It wasn't about just saying, "I'm Jimmy, I'm a photographer."

Nije bilo dovoljno reći, "Ja sam Jimmy, fotograf."

I had to get to know every single one of them,

Morao sam upoznati svakoga od njih,

right down to whose boyfriend is who and who is allowed to kiss who.

tko je čiji dečko i tko koga smije poljubiti.

So in the end, a week later,

Tako na kraju, tjedan dana kasnije,

and I was absolutely exhausted,

bio sam potpuno iscrpljen

I mean on my knees going, "Please get back up in that tree.

molio na koljenima "Vratite se.

It's a picture I need to make."

Moram to slikati."

They all came back. I put them all back up in the tree.

Svi se vrate. Smjestim ih.

I made sure the girls were in the right position,

Pobrinem se da su cure na pravom mjestu,

and the ones that slapped, one was over there.

i da je ona koja je udarila skroz tamo.

They did look at each other. If you look at it later,

Pogledavale su se, ako kasnije pogledate sliku

they're staring at each other very angrily,

zure jedna u drugu poprilično ljutito,

and I've got the tree and everything,

a ja sam pred stablom

and then at the last minute, I go, "The goat, the goat!

i u zadnju minutu vičem "Koza, koza!"

Treba nešto za gledanje. Treba bijela koza u sredini.

I need something for the eye to look at. I need a white goat in the middle."

Tako sam zamijenio koze. Postavio ih u kadar.

So I swapped all the goats around. I put the goats in.

Ali i tad sam pogriješio, jer kako pogledate slijeva,

But even then I got it wrong, because if you can see on the left-hand side,

dječak je odjurio jer nisam odabrao njegovu kozu.

another little boy storms off because I didn't choose his goat.

Pa je pouka da moram naučiti pričati i kozji jezik i Daasanach.

So the moral being I have to learn to speak Goat as well as Daasanach.

But anyway, the effort that goes into that picture

Uglavnom, trud koji se uloži u fotografiju

and the story that I've just related to you,

i priča koju sam vam upravo ispričao,

as you can imagine,

kao što možete zamisliti, ima još bizarnih,

there are hundreds of other bizarre, eccentric stories

ekscentričnih priča

of hundreds of other people around the world.

stotina drugih ljudi diljem svijeta.

And this was about four years ago, and I set off on a journey,

Ovo je bilo prije 4 godine. Krenuo sam na put,

to be honest, a very indulgent journey.

iskreno, da ugodim samom sebi.

I'm a real romantic. I'm an idealist, perhaps in some ways naive.

Ja sam romantik, idealist, možda i naivan.

But I truly believe that there are people on the planet that are beautiful.

Ali vjerujem da postoje ljudi na svijetu koji su lijepi.

It's very, very simple. It's not rocket science.

Jako je jednostavno. Nije to raketna znanost.

I wanted to put these people on a pedestal.

Htio sam staviti te ljude na postolje.

I wanted to put them on a pedestal like they'd never been seen before.

Onako kako ih nitko nikad nije vidio.

So, I chose about 35 different groups,

Tako sam odabrao oko 35 različitih grupa,

tribes, indigenous cultures.

plemena, domorodačkih kultura.

They were chosen purely because of their aesthetic,

Odabrani su isključivo zbog njihove estetike,

and I'll talk more about that later.

kasnije ću reći više o tome.

I'm not an anthropologist, I have no technical study with the subject,

Nisam antropolog,

but I do have a very, very, very deep passion,

ali imam veliku duboku strast

and I believe that I had to choose the most beautiful people on the planet

i vjerujem da sam birao između najljepših ljudi na svijetu

in the most beautiful environment that they lived in,

u najljepšoj okolini u kojoj žive

and put the two together and present them to you.

i spojio sam to dvoje i prezentirao to vama.

About a year ago,

Prije godinu dana

I published the first pictures,

objavio sam prve fotografije

and something extraordinarily exciting happened.

i dogodilo se nešto nevjerojatno uzbudljivo.

The whole world came running,

Čitav svijet se uskomešao,

and it was a bizarre experience, because everybody, from everywhere:

bizarno iskustvo, svi su pitali

"Who are they? What are they? How many are they?

"Tko su? Što su? Koliko ih ima?

Where did you find them? Are they real? You faked it.

Gdje si ih našao? Jesu li stvarni? Lažirao si to.

Tell me. Tell me. Tell me. Tell me." Millions of questions for which,

Reci mi. Reci mi. Reci mi." Toliko pitanja

to be honest, I don't have the answers.

na koja, iskreno, nisam imao odgovore.

I really didn't have the answers,

Zbilja nisam imao odgovore

and I could sort of understand, okay, they're beautiful, that was my intention,

i nekako sam razumio, lijepi su,

but the questions that I was being fired at,

to je i bila namjera, ali na ta pitanja

I could not answer them.

nisam mogao odgovoriti.

Until, it was quite amusing, about a year ago

Sve dok prije godinu dana

somebody said, "You've been invited to do a TED Talk."

netko nije rekao "Pozvan si da održiš TED govor."

And I said, "Ted? Ted? Who's Ted? I haven't met Ted before."

Rekao sam, "Ted? Tko je Ted? Ne poznajem nikakvog Teda."

He said, "No, a TED Talk." I said, "But who's Ted?

"Ne, TED govor." Rekao sam, "Ali tko je Ted?

Do I have to talk to him or do we sit with each other on the stage?"

Moram li pričati s njim ili smo skupa na pozornici?"

And, "No, no, the TED group. You must know about it."

"Ne, ne, TED grupa. Sigurno znaš za njih."

And I said, "I've been in a teepee and in a yurt for the last five years.

A ja kažem, "Zadnjih 5 godina sam u tipiju i mongolskim nastambama

How do I know who Ted is? Introduce me to him."

Kako da znam tko je Ted? Upoznaj me s njim."

Anyway, to cut a long story short, he said, "We have to do a TED Talk."

Da skratim, kaže "Moramo održati TED govor."

Researched. Oh, exciting. That's great!

Istražim. Oh, uzbudljivo. Odlično!

And then eventually you're going to go to TEDGlobal.

A nakon nekog vremena ideš na TEDGlobal.

Even more exciting.

Još uzbudljivije.

But what you need to do, you need to teach the people lessons,

Trebaš ljude poučiti

lessons that you've learned on your travels around the world

naučiti lekcijama koje si naučio na svojim putovanjima

with these tribes.

s tim plemenima.

I thought, lessons, okay, well, what did I learn? Good question.

Što sam naučio? Dobro pitanje.

Three. You need three lessons, and they need to be terribly profound.

Tri. Trebaš tri lekcije i moraju biti jako duboke.

(Laughter)

(Smijeh)

And I thought, three lessons, well, I'm going to think about it.

Tri lekcije, pa morat ću razmisliti.

(Applause)

(Pljesak)

So I thought long and hard, and I stood here two days ago,

Razmišljao sam dugo i stajao ovdje prije 2 dana,

and I had my test run, and I had my cards

imao sam probni nastup, imao sam svoje kartice,

and my clicker in my hands and my pictures were on the screen,

kliker u rukama i slike su bile na ekranu,

and I had my three lessons, and I started presenting them,

imao sam svoje 3 lekcije i počeo ih prezentirati

and I had this very odd out-of-body experience.

i doživio čudno vantjelesno iskustvo.

I sort of looked at myself standing there, going, "Oh, Jimmy,

Vidio sam se tu i pomislio "Oh Jimmy,

this is complete loads of codswallop.

ovo je glupost.

All these people sitting here, they've had more of these talks,

Svi ti ljudi, slušali su puno govora

they've heard more lessons in their life.

čuli puno lekcija u svome životu.

Who are you to tell them what you've learned?

Tko si ti da im kažeš što si naučio?

Who are you to guide them and who are you to show them

Tko si ti da ih vodiš i da im pokažeš

what is right, what is wrong, what these people have to say?"

što je u redu, što nije, što ti ljudi imaju za reći?"

And I had a little bit of a, it was very private,

I doživio sam, bilo je to privatno,

a little bit of a meltdown.

blagi napad panike.

I went back, and a little bit like the boy walking away from the tree with his goats,

Vratim se i kao dečko s kozom

very disgruntled, going, that didn't work,

nezadovoljan, mislim nije to to,

It wasn't what I wanted to communicate.

to nije ono što sam htio iskomunicirati.

And I thought long and hard about it, and I thought, well, the only thing

Dugo sam razmišljao i pomisio sve što mogu

I can communicate is very, very basic.

iskomunicirati je ono osnovno.

You have to turn it all the way around.

Morate to preokrenuti.

There's only one person I know here, and that's me.

Samo jednu osobu tu poznajem - sebe.

I'm still getting to know myself,

Još uvijek samoga sebe upoznajem,

and it's a lifelong journey, and I probably won't have all the answers,

to je cjeloživotno putovanje,

but I did learn some extraordinary things on this journey.

možda neću imati sve odgovore, ali svašta sam naučio.

So what I'm going to do is share with you my lessons.

Podijelit ću s vama svoje lekcije.

It's a very, as I explained at the beginning, very indulgent, very personal,

Kako sam rekao na početku, ove slike su nastale

how and why I made these pictures,

iz osobnih razloga,

and I leave it to you as the audience to interpret what these lessons

a vama ostavljam da zaključite što su te lekcije

have meant to me, what they could perhaps mean to you.

značile meni i što možda mogu značiti vama.

I traveled enormously as a child.

Puno sam putovao kao dijete.

I was very nomadic. It was actually very exciting.

Bio sam pravi nomad. Bilo je to jako uzbudljivo.

All around the world,

Po cijelome svijetu,

and I had this feeling that I was pushed off at great speed

osjećao sam da sam odgurnut da naglo

to become somebody, become that individual, Jimmy.

postanem netko, da postanem ta individua, Jimmy,

Go off into the planet, and so I ran, and I ran,

Idi po planetu, pa sam trčao i trčao,

and my wife sometimes kids me, "Jimmy, you look a bit like Forrest Gump,"

žena me nekad zafrkava, "Nalikuješ Forrestu Gumpu,"

but I'm, "No, it's all about something, trust me."

ali ja kažem, "Ne, sve to ima svoj razlog, vjeruj mi."

So I kept running and I kept running, and I sort of got somewhere

Pa sam nastavio trčati i došao negdje

and I sort of stood there and looked around me and I thought, well,

i stajao ondje, ogledao se i pomislio

where do I belong? Where do I fit?

pa, kamo ja pripadam? Gdje se ja uklapam?

What am I? Where am I from? I had no idea.

Što sam ja? Odakle sam ja? Nemam pojma.

So I hope there aren't too many psychologists in this audience.

Nadam se da nema puno psihologa u publici.

Perhaps part of this journey

Možda je dio ovog putovanja o tome

is about me trying to find out where I belonged.

da otkrijem kamo pripadam.

So whilst going, and don't worry, I didn't when I arrived with these tribes,

Bez brige, kad sam stigao među ta plemena,

I didn't paint myself yellow and run around with these spears and loincloths.

nisam se obojao u žuto i trčkarao s kopljima i krpicama oko struka.

But what I did find were people that belonged themselves,

Ali otkrio sam ljude koji su pripadali sami sebi,

and they inspired me, some extraordinary people,

i inspirirali su me, nevjerojatni ljudi.

and I'd like to introduce you to some heroes of mine.

Htio bih vas upoznati s nekima od mojih junaka.

They're the Huli.

To su Huli.

Now, the Huli are some of the most extraordinarily beautiful people

Huli su jedni od najljepših ljudi

on the planet.

na planetu. Ponosni su.

They're proud. They live in the Papua New Guinean highlands.

Žive u planinama Papua Nove Gvineje.

There's not many of them left, and they're called the Huli wigmen.

Nije ih puno ostalo, a zovu se Huli wigmen.

And images like this, I mean, this is what it's all about for me.

Slike poput ovih, tu je bit svega, za mene.

And you've spent weeks and months there talking with them, getting there,

Tjedni i mjeseci provedeni u razgovoru s njima,

and I want to put them on a pedestal, and I said, "You have something

želim ih staviti na postolje, rekao sam "Imate nešto

that many people have not seen.

što mnogi ljudi nisu vidjeli.

You sit in this stunning nature."

Sjedite u zadivljujućoj prirodi."

And it really does look like this, and they really do look like this.

Priroda i oni zbilja izgledaju ovako.

Ovo je stvarno.

This is the real thing.

And you know why they're proud? You know why they look like this,

A zašto su ponosni

i zašto sam se slomio da ih slikam.

and why I broke my back literally

to photograph them and present them to you?

Imaju nevjerojatne rituale.

It's because they have these extraordinary rituals.

And the Huli have this ritual: When they're teenagers,

Huli imaju ritual: kad su tinejdžeri,

moraju obrijati glavu,

becoming a man, they have to shave their heads,

i tako svaki dan do kraja života.

and they spend the rest of their life shaving their heads every single day,

A tu kosu

and what they do with that hair,

pretvore u djelo

they make it into a creation,

djelo koje je jako osobno.

a creation that's a very personal creation.

To je njihovo Huli djelo.

It's their creation. It's their Huli creation.

So they're called the Huli wigmen.

Zato se zovu Huli wigmen.

To na njegovoj glavi je perika.

That's a wig on his head.

Sačinjena je od njegove ljudske kose.

It's all made out of his human hair.

Tu periku ukrase perjem ptica raja,

And then they decorate that wig with the feathers of the birds of paradise,

and don't worry, there are many birds there.

ne brinite se, ima mnogo ptica tamo.

There's very few people living, so nothing to get too upset about,

Jako je malo živućih ljudi pa nema razloga za nemir,

oni provedu cijeli svoj život praveći te šešire

and they spend the rest of their life recreating these hats

i nadograđujući ih

and getting further and further,

i to je nevjerojatno. A postoji još jedna grupa,

and it's extraordinary, and there's another group,

Kalam, i žive u dolini do,

they're called the Kalam, and they live in the next valley,

ali govore potpuno drugim jezikom,

but they speak a completely different language,

izgledaju sasvim drugačije i nose šešire,

they look completely different, and they wear a hat,

sačinjene od skarabeja,

and it's built out of scarabs,

fantastičnih smaragdno zelenih malih skarabeja

these fantastic emerald green little scarabs,

nekad ih je 5,000 ili 6,000 u šeširu

and sometimes there are 5,000 or 6,000 scarabs in this hat,

cijeli svoj život skupljaju te skarabeje

and they spend the whole of their life collecting these scarabs

da bi napravili takve šešire.

to build these hats.

Huli su me nadahnuli jer pripadaju.

So the Huli inspired me in that they belong.

Možda trebam više raditi da nađem svoj ritual

Perhaps I have to work harder at finding a ritual which matters for me

i vratiti se u svoju prošlost da bih vidio gdje se zapravo uklapam.

and going back into my past to see where I actually fit.

An extremely important part of this project

Jako važan dio ovog projekta

je bio o tome kako fotografiram te nevjerojatne ljude.

was about how I photograph these extraordinary people.

U principu to je ljepota. Mislim da je ljepota bitna.

And it's basically beauty. I think beauty matters.

We spend the whole of our existence revolving around beauty:

Dobar dio našeg postojanja se vrti oko ljepote:

beautiful places, beautiful things, and ultimately, beautiful people.

lijepa mjesta, lijepe stvari i konačno, lijepi ljudi.

It's very, very, very significant.

To je jako, jako važno.

Cijeli život analiziram kako izgledam.

I've spent all of my life analyzing what do I look like?

Am I perceived as beautiful?

Percipiraju li me kao lijepog?

Does it matter if I'm a beautiful person or not,

Je li bitno jesam li lijepa osoba ili ne,

or is it purely based on my aesthetic?

ili se to temelji na mojoj estetici?

And then when I went off, I came to a very narrow conclusion.

Tada sam došao do zaključka.

Do I have to go around the world photographing, excuse me,

Moram li putovati i slikati, oprostite,

žene u dobi od 25 do 30 godina? Hoće li to biti ljepota?

women between the age of 25 and 30? Is that what beauty is going to be?

Is everything before and after that utterly irrelevant?

Je li sve prije i poslije toga potpuno nebitno?

And it was only until I went on a journey,

Tek kada sam otišao na putovanje

a journey that was so extreme,

tako ekstremno putovanje

I still get shivers when I think about it.

još uvijek zadrhtim kad ga se sjetim.

I went to a part of the world, and I don't know whether any of you

Otišao sam u dio svijeta, nisam siguran jeste li ikad čuli

have ever heard of Chukotka. Has anybody ever heard of Chukotka?

za Čukotku. Je li itko čuo za Čukotku?

Čukotka je vjerojatno najudaljenije mjesto na koje možete otići

Chukotka probably is, technically, as far as one can go

and still be on the living planet.

a još uvijek biti na planetu živih.

It's 13 hours' flight from Moscow.

Nalazi se na 13 sati leta od Moskve.

First you've got to get to Moscow, and then 13 hours' flight nonstop from Moscow.

Prvo, treba doći do Moskve pa 13-satni let od Moskve bez stajanja.

And that's if you get there.

I to je ako uopće dospijete tamo.

Kao što vidite, neki promaše zračnu pistu.

As you can see, some people sort of miss the runway.

A kada tamo sletite, u Čukotki su Čukči.

And then when you land there, in Chukotka are the Chukchis.

Čukči su posljednji domorodački Inuiti Sibira.

Now, the Chukchis are the last indigenous Inuits of Siberia,

and they're people I'd heard about, I'd hardly seen any images of,

Čuo sam za njih ali gotovo da nisam vidio nijednu njihovu sliku,

but I knew they were there,

ali znao sam da su tamo.

and I'd been in touch with this guide,

Bio sam u kontaktu s vodičem

and this guide said,

koji mi je rekao

"There's this fantastic tribe. There's only about 40 of them.

"Postoji odlično pleme. Samo njih 40.

Naći ćemo mi njih." I krenemo.

You'll be okay. We'll find them." So off we went on this journey.

Kada smo stigli, nakon mjesec dana putovanja po ledu,

When we arrived there, after a month of traveling across the ice,

stigli smo do njih, ali onda mi nisu dali da ih slikam.

and we'd got to them, but then I was not allowed to photograph them.

Rekli su mi, "Ne možete nas slikati. Morate čekati.

They said, "You cannot photograph us. You have to wait.

Morate pričekati dok nas ne upoznate i počnete razumjeti.

You have to wait until you get to know us. You have to wait until you understand us.

Dok ne vidite kako komuniciramo međusobno."

You have to wait until you see how we interact with one another."

I tek tada, tjednima poslije, vidio sam poštovanje.

And only then, it was many, many weeks later, I saw a respect.

Nisu imali mišljenja.

They had zero judgment.

They observed one another, from the youth, from the middle aged to the old.

Promatrali su se, od mladosti preko srednje do zrele dobi.

They need each other.

Trebaju jedni druge.

The children need to chew the meat all day

Djeca žvaču meso cijeli dan

because the adults don't have any teeth,

jer odrasli nemaju zube,

ali istovremeno, djeca izvedu starce van

but at the same time, the children take the old aged people out

na zahod jer su nemoćni.

to the toilet because they're infirm,

Tako da postoji izvanredno poštovanje u zajednici.

so there's this fantastic community of respect.

And they adore and admire one another, and they truly taught me

I obožavaju se i dive jedni drugima.

Naučili su me što je ljepota.

what beauty was.

Now I'm going to ask for a little bit of audience interaction.

Sada će mi trebati malo pomoći od vas.

This is extremely important for the end of my talk.

Ovo je iznimno bitno za kraj moga govora.

If you could look at somebody left to the right of you,

Pogledajte u nekoga s vaše lijeve ili desne strane,

and I want you to observe them,

želim da ga promotrite,

and I want you to give them a compliment. This is very important.

želim da mu date kompliment. To je jako bitno.

Pohvalite nos, kosu ili auru, svejedno,

Now, it may be their nose or their hair or even their aura, I don't mind,

but please look at each other, give them a compliment.

ali pogledajte se, dajte si kompliment.

You have to be quick, because I'm running out of time.

Morate biti brzi jer mi ponestaje vremena.

And you have to remember it.

Morate zapamtiti kompliment.

Okay, thank you, thank you, thank you, you've given each other compliments.

U redu, hvala, hvala, hvala, dali ste si komplimente.

Hold that compliment very, very tightly. Hold it for later.

Sada zadržite čvrsto taj kompliment. Zadržite ga za kasnije.

Posljednja stvar, nevjerojatno duboka,

And the last thing, it was extraordinarily profound,

and it happened only two weeks ago. Two weeks ago I went back to the Himba.

dogodila se prije samo 2 tjedna kada sam otišao natrag Himbama.

Now, the Himba live in northern Namibia on the border of Angola,

Himbe žive u sjevernoj Namibiji, na granici s Angolom,

and I'd been there a few times before,

bio sam tamo već nekoliko puta

i vratio se da im pokažem svoju knjigu

and I'd gone back to present this book I'd made,

da im pokažem slike i započnemo razgovor.

to show them the pictures, to get into a discussion with them,

Da im kažem, "Ovako vas vidim. Ovako vas volim.

to say, "This is how I saw you. This is how I love you.

Ovako vas poštujem. Što mislite? Jesam li u pravu? U krivu?

This is how I respect you. What do you think? Am I right? Am I wrong?"

Htio sam tu debatu. Bilo je jako emocionalno.

So I wanted this debate. It was very, very, very emotional,

Jednu večer sjedili smo oko logorske vatre

and one night we were sitting around the campfire,

i iskreno, mislim da sam malo više popio.

and I have to be honest, I think I'd had a little bit too much to drink,

Sjedio sam ispod zvijezda i mislio "Ovo je super,

and I was sort of sitting under the stars going, "This is great,

vidjeli ste moje slike, volimo se." (Smijeh)

you've seen my pictures, we love each other." (Laughter)

Malo sam spor

And I'm a little bit slow,

pogledao sam oko sebe i,

mislio sam, nedostaje ograda.

and I looked around me, and I said,

I thought, maybe, the fence is missing.

Zar nije tu bila ograda prošli put?

Wasn't there a fence here last time I came?

Znate, velika zaštitna ograda oko sela,

You know, this big protective fence around the village,

pogledali su me i rekli, "Da, poglavica mrtav."

and they sort of looked at me and go, "Yeah, chief die."

I pomislio sam, u redu, smrt poglavice,

And I thought, okay, chief dying, right, you know,

pogledaj ponovno u zvijezde, u logorsku vatru.

look up at the stars again, look at the campfire.

Smrt poglavice. Kakve veze ima njegova smrt s ogradom?

Chief die. What on Earth does chief die have to do with the fence?

"Poglavica mrtav.

"Chief die.

Prvo uništimo, da? Onda razmišljamo.

First we destroy, yeah? Then we reflect.

Onda opet izgradimo. Onda poštujemo."

Then we rebuild. Then we respect."

And I burst out in tears, because my father had only just died

I briznuo sam u plač jer mi je otac umro

nedugo prije puta.

prior to this journey,

and I didn't ever acknowledge him,

Nisam ga cijenio zbog činjenice da danas stojim ovdje

I didn't ever appreciate him for the fact that I'm probably standing here today

zbog njega.

because of him.

These people taught me that we are only who we are because of our parents

Ti ljudi su me naučili da smo ono što jesmo zbog naših roditelja

naših djedova i baka i svih predaka

and our grandparents and our forefathers

going on and on and on before that,

duboko natrag u prošlost.

I bez obzira koliki bio romantik i idealist na ovom putovanju,

and I, no matter how romantic or how idealistic I am on this journey,

nisam to znao do prije dva tjedna.

I did not know that until two weeks ago.

I did not know that until two weeks ago.

Nisam to znao do prije dva tjedna.

So what's this all about?

Pa o čemu se radi?

Well, there's an image I'd like to show you,

Želim vam pokazati jednu sliku.

quite a special image, and it wasn't essentially the image I wanted to choose.

Posebna slika iako nije ona koju sam prvotno htio odabrati.

Sjedio sam tamo neki dan i pokušavao naći moćnu sliku za kraj.

I was sitting there the other day, and I have to finish on a strong image.

Netko je rekao, "Moraš im pokazati Nenetse."

And somebody said, "You have to show them the picture of the Nenets. The Nenets."

Da, ali to nije moja najdraža slika.

I was like, yeah, but that's not my favorite picture.

"Ne, ne, ne, ne, ne, ne, ne. To je odlična slika.

She went, "No no no no no no no. It's an amazing picture.

Ti si u njegovim očima."

"Kako to misliš, u njegovim očima? To je slika Nenets"

You're in his eyes."

I said, "What do you mean I'm in his eyes? It's a picture of the Nenets."

"Ne, pogledaj, pogledaj bolje, u njegovim si očima."

She said, "No, look, look closely, you're in his eyes."

Ako bolje pogledate, vidi se moj odraz u njegovim očima.

And when you look closely at this picture, there is a reflection of me in his eyes,

Pa mislim da možda on ima moju dušu, ja sam u njegovoj duši.

so I think perhaps he has my soul, and I'm in his soul,

and whilst these pictures look at you, I ask you to look at them.

I dok ove slike gledaju vas, molim da i vi gledate njih

You may not be reflected in his eyes,

Možda nema vašeg odraza u njihovim očima,

but there is something extraordinarily important about these people.

ali ovi ljudi su neopisivo važni.

I don't ultimately have the answers, as I've just shared with you,

Nemam sve odgovore, kao što sam vam rekao,

but you must do. There must be something there.

ali mora nešto postojati.

So if you can briefly reflect on what I was discussing

Ako se kratko sjetite onoga što sam govorio

about beauty and about belonging and about our ancestors and our roots,

o ljepoti i pripadanju, našim precima i korjenima,

and I need you all to stand for me, please.

zamolio bih vas da svi ustanete.

(Smijeh)

(Laughter)

Now you have no excuse. It's almost lunchtime,

Sada nemate izlike. Skoro je vrijeme ručka

and this is not a standing ovation, so don't worry,

i ovo nisu ovacije, bez brige,

I'm not fishing for compliments.

ne pecam komplimente.

But you were given a compliment a few minutes ago.

Ali dan vam je kompliment prije par minuta.

Now I want you to stand tall.

Sada želim da stanete uspravno.

I want you to breathe in. This is what I say.

Udahnite. Kažem vam,

I'm not going to get on my knees for two weeks.

neću dva tjedna moliti na koljenima.

Neću vas moliti da nosite kozu,

I'm not going to ask you to carry a goat,

a znam da nemate deve.

and I know you don't have any camels.

Fotografija je nevjerojatno moćna.

Photography's extraordinarily powerful.

To je jezik koji sada svi razumijemo.

It's this language which we now all understand.

We truly do all understand it,

Zbilja ga svi razumijemo

and we have this global digital fireplace, don't we,

i imamo globalni digitalni kamin,

but I want to share you with the world,

ali želim vas podijeliti sa svijetom

because you are also a tribe.

jer ste i vi pleme.

You are the TED tribe, yeah? But you have to remember that compliment.

Vi ste TED pleme. Ali morate se sjetiti komplimenta.

You have to stand tall, breathe in through your nose,

Morate stati uspravno, disati kroz nos,

and I'm going to photograph you. Okay?

a ja ću vas slikati. U redu?

I need to do a panoramic shot, so it's going to take a minute,

Treba mi panoramska slika pa će to potrajati malo,

so you have to concentrate, okay?

morate se koncentrirati, u redu?

Dišite, stojte uspravno, bez smijanja. Psst, dišite kroz nos.

Breathe in, stand tall, no laughing. Shh, breathe through your nose.

Slikat ću vas.

I'm going to photograph.

Thank you.

Hvala vam.
