Explore the compelling work of Diné photographer Will Wilson in his series Auto Immune Response. This 2020 archival pigment print, part of his ongoing series since 2005, captures Wilson navigating a post-apocalyptic world on his ancestral Navajo land.

In this powerful piece, Wilson juxtaposes the gas mask and drone against a backdrop of collodion wet-plate photographs—a nod to the 19th-century technology used to portray Native peoples.
