EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Goran Tomasevic, we are transported to the Makala gold mine camp near the town of Mongbwalu in Ituri province, eastern Democratic Republic of Congo. The image captures a miner diligently washing gold, his hands immersed in a bucket filled with shimmering golden water. The close-up shot allows us to appreciate the intricate details of this manual labor; every speck of dust and droplet of water is visible against the backdrop of a blue filter effect. The round shape of the bucket adds an element of symmetry to the composition. The contrast between the white copy space and the vibrant gold color creates a visual feast for our eyes. This creative use of colors emphasizes both nature's wealth and man's relentless pursuit for it. Despite being devoid of people, this photograph speaks volumes about human endeavor and resilience in challenging conditions. We can almost feel the wetness on our skin as we imagine ourselves standing beside this miner, witnessing firsthand his dedication to extracting precious metals from deep within Earth's crust. Goran Tomasevic has masterfully captured not just a moment frozen in time but also an entire industry that thrives on hard work and determination. Through his lens, he invites us into a world where wealth lies hidden beneath layers upon layers of soil – waiting patiently for those willing to brave its depths.
