EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "20086908" we are transported to the enchanting world of the Embera Indigenous People in Colombia's Choco region. The image showcases two young Embera daughters, their faces adorned with sweet-smelling lilies delicately tucked behind their ears. As they prepare for their mothers' curing ceremony, these vibrant girls paint intricate patterns on their bodies using black dye extracted from the indedible Jagua fruit. The Pacific coastal region tribe is known for its rich cultural heritage and unique body decoration practices. This snapshot captures a moment of tradition and transformation as these young women embrace their ancestral customs. Their youthful energy and innocence shine through as they engage in this age-old ritual, symbolizing growth and connection to nature. The photograph by Brian Moser beautifully encapsulates the essence of Latin America's indigenous communities, celebrating diversity and resilience. It serves as a reminder of the profound beauty that lies within our shared human experiences across different cultures. Through this striking visual narrative, we witness not only the physical adornment but also an expression of identity and belonging. These young Embera girls embody strength, grace, and pride in their heritage—a testament to the enduring spirit of South America's indigenous peoples.
