From the Archive: Pine Ridge Rodeo


Last summer I made my annual pilgrimage to Pine Ridge, South Dakota to explore the culture, space, and communities of the Lakota. I mostly shot medium format portraits throughout the trip, but switched over to shoot a rodeo that was taking place not far from the main street that runs through the town. It's always a heartbreaking yet joyful experience to spend time in Pine Ridge. This is one of the shots that slipped through the cracks.
