The Navajo Nation, home to the Navajo tribe, also known as the Diné, meaning “the people”, is the largest Native American reservation in the US, encompassing 27,000 sq miles across New Mexico, Arizona and Utah.

This project was funded by the Joan Wakelin Bursary, in partnership with The Guardian and The Royal Photographic Society.
