Nothing is more remarkable than the lifestyle
and survival of Tibetan nomads. In the harsh
high plateau at 3,500 to 5,000 meters above
sea level, they grow no crops and are on
the constant search for pastures for their
yaks, sheep, goats and horses. They derive
their subsistence from their animals in the
form of fur, wool, meat and dairy. These
are traded for the staple barley and other
necessities of life.
The nomad's sustenance, entirely
dependent on nature, is a metaphor for
human beings' intimate, though tenuous,
relationship with their environment. Pastures
are a means of survival for livestock, whose
wellbeing makes possible nomadic life. It is
a precarious and lonely existence, its reward
a rare intimacy with nature.
