Papua 🌿
I’m not afraid that tourism will change these traditions. I’m more concerned with what happens afterwards: when a ritual becomes a photograph, a photograph becomes content, and that content disappears in the very gesture that brought it into view. Some images deserve to be seen as rare and precious historical records of worlds already beginning to fade—realities that, within a few years, may exist only as echoes of themselves.
