On view are 39 photographs that document the lives of the Sami—indigenous people living today in northern Norway, Sweden, Finland, and the Kola Peninsula in Russia—by indigenous photographer Fred Ivar Utsi Klemetsen. The images show the Sami at home with their families and at work herding their reindeer in traditional ways with a minimum of modern tools.
