EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the unique blend of tradition and modernity in a Batak Toba tribal rural village on Samosir Island, located in the breathtaking Lake Toba of Sumatra, Indonesia. The image captures the essence of this indigenous culture with its traditional wooden houses adorned with contemporary extensions. The vibrant colors of the village's rooftops stand out against the backdrop of lush greenery and crystal-clear waters. This architectural marvel reflects both the rich history and evolving nature of Indonesian culture. As you gaze at this picturesque scene, you can almost feel yourself transported to another time and place. The tranquility emanating from this rural setting is palpable, making it an ideal travel destination for those seeking a peaceful escape from bustling city life. The absence of people in the photograph allows one to fully appreciate the beauty and serenity that surrounds these traditional dwellings. It serves as a reminder that despite advancements in technology and urbanization, there are still pockets where ancient traditions thrive harmoniously alongside contemporary influences. Annie Owen/Robert Harding has skillfully captured not just a moment frozen in time but also an entire cultural narrative within this single frame. Through her lens, we are invited to explore and appreciate the wonders that Southeast Asia has to offer – its diverse architecture, natural landscapes, and most importantly, its rich tapestry of indigenous cultures.
