Nukak Maku

San Jose del Guaviare, Colombia – 2009

Nukak Maku people are a nomadic indigenous tribe from Amazonia, uncontacted until 1988, who were violently forced out of their original jungle territory in the south of Colombia. Nukak Maku got stuck between two worlds – they can not go back to the jungle but in the same time they are far from being assimilated. An entire photo essay will come up shortly.
