The rapid spread of the internet and mobile phones into even the most remote corners of the globe has brought about a uniform era of globalization, fundamentally changing the world we live in.
Kazuyoshi Nomachi traveled to these remote frontiers back when they were still untouched by modern technology, immersing himself in their diverse cultures for long periods to document them. His photographs capture the essence of human life as it existed until just recently—a way of life that has now largely vanished.
