Born in Belgium in 1977, trained as a journalist, Cédric Gerbehaye has chosen photography as a way of recounting the world. Between 2002 and 2006, he worked in Israel and Palestine and was awarded two distinctions in the Prix Photographie Ouverte from Charleroi Photography Museum. A year later, his work 'Gaza: summer rains' received special acclaim in the Bayeux-Calvados Award for war correspondents. In 2007, he started going regularly to the Democratic Republic of the Congo, bringing back an important body of work. 'Congo in Limbo' was published in a book (Le Bec en L’Air, 2010), showed in many exhibitions and has earned him seven international distinctions, including a World Press Photo Award and the Olivier Rebbot Award from the Overseas Press Club of America. Shortly after, he decided to work on South Sudan and his series 'Land of Cush' (Le Bec en L’Air, 2013) was awarded the Prix SCAM Roger Pic in 2012.
