EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative image, a Selkup man from North Siberia proudly displays his hand-crafted skis, a vital tool for navigating the challenging terrain of the taiga forest during the early spring season. The Selkup people, an indigenous minority living in the North Tumen region of Russia, have long relied on their traditional ways of life to survive in this harsh, yet beautiful environment. The man's skis are made of wood, meticulously carved and shaped to provide optimal glide on the icy surface of the river Hudosey, a tributary that flows into the larger river Taz. To prevent the skis from sliding back, he has covered them with soft, supple moose-skin. The skins not only serve as a practical solution but also add a distinctively traditional touch to the Selkup man's attire. The scene unfolds in the heart of the taiga forest, where coniferous trees tower above, their branches reaching for the sky. The forest, a testament to the enduring resilience of nature, provides the Selkup people with the resources they need to thrive. The man's home, a dug-out dwelling, is nestled among the trees, offering a glimpse into the simple yet effective shelter that has sustained the Selkup community for generations. As the ice begins to melt and the first signs of spring emerge, the Selkup people continue their connection to the land and their rich history. Their traditional ways of life, passed down through the generations, remain a testament to their strength, resourcefulness, and unwavering commitment to their culture. This image captures a moment in time, a moment that speaks to the enduring spirit of the Selkup people and their deep connection to the land they call home.
