They are the Afghans in Jens Umbach's latest project, which the photographer hopes to turn into an 11-chapter book. In a series of portraits, Umbach depicts people who live in and around Mazar-e-Sharif, Afghanistan's third-largest city and a key location for US-led military action in the country. The portraits are set against a plain white background, omitting any context of the subjects' surroundings.
