EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Brian Moser, we are transported to the lower slopes of the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta in Colombia. The image showcases a poignant scene of everyday life for the Kogi Tribe, an indigenous community that calls this region home. San Antonio Mama Valencias' daughter and young son take center stage as they carefully carry freshly cut bundles of hay along a dusty track towards their family home. This traditional practice is essential for re-thatching their humble abode, ensuring protection from the elements. The backdrop reveals a sobering sight: denuded slopes resulting from past over-grazing. It serves as a reminder of the delicate balance between human activities and nature's resilience. This photograph not only captures the beauty of South America's Northern Slopes but also sheds light on the rich cultural heritage and agricultural practices deeply rooted in these lands. It represents a harmonious blend of Hispanic and Latin American influences that have shaped Colombian society throughout history. Brian Moser's lens offers us an intimate glimpse into the daily struggles and triumphs experienced by these resilient people. Through his artistry, he invites us to reflect on our own relationship with nature, reminding us that sustainable agriculture and preservation of ethnic traditions are crucial for our collective future.
