Claudia Andujar, From The Yanomami Struggle, 2019

Friday floating… “There exists a fine line between genuinely curious, educational, thoughtful and politically or socially motivated photojournalism and the invasive imagery that can quickly become cheap tourism into the lives of others [and]… the work of Claudia Andujar fits firmly into the first category,” writes Emily Gosling in an archive feature on the photographer and activist for Elephant. Andujar has devoted her life to protecting the Yanomami, one of the largest indigenous groups in her home country of Brazil, providing important visual documentation of their lives and the issues that threaten them.
