Klaus Bo is an autodidact professional freelance photographer based in Copenhagen, Denmark, focussed on social and cultural stories, documenting on many different issues, including Iraqi refugees living in Syria, the Coptic garbage city in Egypt, the masked women of southern Iran, the Holi festival in India, the aftermath of the earthquake in Haiti, refugees in Tunisia fleeing Libya and many more. He has worked with organisations like CARE (Niger, Nepal), Doctors Without Borders (Haiti) and Danish Refugee Council (Iraq, Kenya, Ethiopia and Djibouti).
In 2010/2011 he began working on what has become his life’s work – the Dead and Alive Project, documenting death rituals and how we relate to death around the world.
