Back to the origins: How modern hunters and gatherers live

By Pictolic https://pictolic.com/article/back-to-the-origins-how-modern-hunters-and-gatherers-live.htmlTraveling through the states of Nevada, Idaho, California and Oregon in the period from 2006 to 2012, Seattle photographer Adrain Chesser experienced a real spiritual awakening. In the company of the Indian Timothy the White Eagle, he lived among the nomadic informals who left life in decent society for the lifestyle of hunters and gatherers. Experiencing a real adventure in which all the difficulties of the game are worth the candle, Chesser captured this nomadic lifestyle on film, creating the project "Return to the Origins". The group traveled all over the country depending on the time of year, and its life was full of unusual activities for a modern person, such as hunting wild animals, butchering and cooking their carcasses on a fire, picking berries and building temporary dwellings. In his photo project, Chesser reveals a way of life in harmony with nature, reminiscent of how Native Americans lived. As the White Eagle aptly noted, this is a way of life in which "you give more than you take."
