Selkup Father and Son - Sailing the Waves of Tradition!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo, we witness a heartwarming moment between Selkup father Eugenii Irikov and his young son as they embark on an extraordinary adventure in their traditional hand-made wooden boat. Crafted from a single tree-trunk, this remarkable vessel called "vetka" symbolizes the rich cultural heritage of the Selkup people. As the sun casts its golden glow upon them, Eugenii's weathered hands expertly navigate through calm waters while his son eagerly observes every move. The bond between father and son is palpable; it transcends generations and bridges worlds. With each stroke of the oar, they sail not only across physical landscapes but also into a realm where ancient traditions come alive. Their journey becomes a testament to resilience, preserving customs that have withstood the test of time. The image captures more than just two individuals; it encapsulates an entire community's spirit - one that cherishes family values and embraces nature's wonders. It reminds us all to appreciate our roots while embracing new horizons. So let us celebrate these brave explorers who defy modern conventions by embarking on this enchanting voyage together! May their story inspire us to cherish our own unique heritage and create lasting memories with loved ones in unexpected ways.
