Tanzania

A journey through the savannah villages and highland schools of northern Tanzania — seven photographs made among the Maasai and Chaga peoples of Mto wa Mbu and the slopes of Kilimanjaro. From a hospital where a mother holds her child close to a shepherd boy sheltering from the rain, these images record a life lived close to the land — and to each other.
