In this print titled "North of Merti, Northern Kenya" we are transported to the vast and arid landscapes of East Africa. The image captures a moment in time where life-giving water becomes the center of attention for a herd of cows. As nomadic pastoralists, these animals rely on finding watering holes like this one to quench their thirst and survive in the harsh desert environment. The scene is both tranquil and powerful, showcasing the resilience and adaptability of African wildlife. Against the backdrop of endless sand dunes, the cows gather around the waterhole with an air of urgency, knowing that access to water is crucial for their survival. This snapshot offers a glimpse into the daily struggles faced by traditional tribes living in sub-Saharan Africa.

It serves as a reminder that even amidst droughts and challenging conditions, life finds a way to persist. Through this image, we gain insight into rural communities' deep connection with nature and their reliance on natural resources. "North of Merti, Northern Kenya" invites us to contemplate our own relationship with water and how its scarcity can impact entire ecosystems.
