This project explores the Karoo — a semi-desert shaped by survival, scarcity and layered histories.
The land carries traces of pastoral life, colonial expansion and ecological adaptation.
Through roads, memorials, nests and the remains of predators, the photographs reveal a region where land is both livelihood and battleground.
Ownership, drought and memory shape how it is lived on and fought over.
The Karoo’s apparent emptiness is never neutral.
It holds stories of endurance and fragile balance between people, animals and environment.
