Around Lake Baikal in eastern Siberia lies Buryatia, a Budd- hist republic and haven for Orthodox Old Believers, home to many different tribes and ethnic groups who still practice shamanism after the suppressive communist regime of the Soviet Union. Gustavo, who wanted to better understand these traditions, positioned himself as an invisible, slow moving reporter working with a Sinar Norma 4×5” camera, tripod and black veil.
