EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Brian Moser captures a tender moment in the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta region of Colombia. In the image, an Arhuaco indigenous mother is skillfully shearing a sheep with sheers purchased in the Lowlands. Her young son and another person, who remains out of sight, assist her by holding down the sheep while the rest of the flock is safely retained inside a stone-walled pen. The photograph showcases not only the traditional farming practices but also highlights the strong bond between generations within this community. The Arhuaco tribe has deep roots in American indigenous culture and their way of life revolves around agriculture and livestock husbandry. The serene expression on both mother and child's faces reflects their connection to nature and their commitment to sustaining their land through responsible agricultural practices. This image serves as a reminder of how important it is to preserve these ancient traditions that are deeply intertwined with South America's rich cultural heritage. Brian Moser's lens beautifully captures this scene, showcasing not just daily work but also celebrating diversity and resilience found among people from different ethnic backgrounds. It reminds us that even in our modern world, there are still communities like this one where farming remains an integral part of life - nurturing both livelihoods and familial bonds for future generations to come.
