The Oasis is Gertrude Dyck's personal memoir of a land and people she has adopted as her own. Living alongside the locals when comfort and even survival depended on ingenuity rather than modern appliances, when every small distraction from daily hardship was a cause for celebration, Gertrude Dyck was in a unique position to record with her lens and anecdotes a way of life in transition.

Her colourful photography portrays life as she found it among people who knew little of the outside world and had never before seen a camera.
