A bold and unique project is being done by photographer Angelica Dass, she takes portraits of volunteers from Brazil to Paris to show that we need to take a new look at race. Skin doesn’t come in black, white or brown. It has many colors and gradient of tones ranging from dark to light.

Her project is called Humanae and it’s an ongoing project that is no way near the end. On her Tumblr blog she writes about it as a ” work in progress “. More info: Humanae

Angelica tries and get volunteers of all skin colors

The idea is to photograph the people with as little makeup and style as possible to highlight their natural skin color and tone

After she gets enough photos of people, she creates 11×11 pixel color samples of the photos

She than matches the the images against the Pantone color library, trying to find the exact labels for the shades

Dass adds each photo with the number of the hue. giving you the opportunity to see how the person and color behind him or her match perfectly

It gives the viewers an opportunity to see the gradients in race and color and not just label people as black or white or brown
