EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative image, we witness a Selkup shaman named Ganya, a Siberian indigenous healer and foreteller, standing next to his sacred tree place in the heart of the Polar Circle, Russia. The scene is set in the tranquil, yet enchanting woods near the frozen river Taz. The air is filled with an ethereal stillness, as dusk descends upon the winter landscape. Ganya, dressed in traditional Selkup attire, is adorned in a malitsa, a long, fur-lined coat, and bakari, traditional reindeer-hide boots. His face is etched with the wisdom of ages, and his eyes hold an intensity that speaks of a deep connection with the natural world. The sacred tree, a majestic birch, stands tall and proud, its branches adorned with an array of shamanic totems. Among them, a portrait of Lenin, an intriguing juxtaposition of the old and the new, the traditional and the modern. Hanging beneath the tree, a wooden box holds the shaman's most sacred items, amgri, which are believed to possess healing and protective powers. The Selkup people, an indigenous minority in Siberia, have a rich history steeped in shamanism, a spiritual practice that connects them to the natural world and their ancestors. This image captures the essence of their traditions, offering a glimpse into a world where the line between the physical and spiritual realms is blurred. As the sun sets, the woods are bathed in a soft, golden light, casting long shadows and creating an otherworldly atmosphere. The scene is a testament to the resilience and deep connection of the Selkup people to their land and their ancient beliefs.
