EDITORS COMMENTS
In this black and white portrait captured by Joxe Inazio Kuesta Garmendia, we witness the resilience and determination of a young boy from Benin as he embarks on his daily quest for water. With a worn-out bowl balanced effortlessly atop his head, he carries the heavy burden with grace and purpose. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the challenges faced by communities in accessing clean water, an essential resource often taken for granted. The boy's unwavering commitment to fulfilling this basic need showcases both his strength and vulnerability. His face tells a story of perseverance beyond his years, reflecting the weight of responsibility that rests upon him. It is through images like these that we are compelled to confront our own privilege while recognizing the struggles endured by others around the world. Kuesta Garmendia's documentary-style approach captures not only a moment frozen in time but also invites us into an intimate connection with this young child's reality. Through his lens, we gain insight into the daily rituals undertaken by countless individuals who tirelessly seek access to clean drinking water. This powerful image reminds us of our shared humanity and compels us to take action towards ensuring equitable access to one of life's most fundamental necessities - clean water for all.
