Naran
a nomad encampment in the Gobi Desert, Mongolia
Naran, at 42, threads a life of gritty resilience within her nomadic encampment. Among the whispers of the Gobi, she rearranges the chaos around her, coaxing harmony with steady hands. Her days begin boiling water on an old stove, trading grooming for survival essentials, stitched tightly by the threads of her past.
