EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a traditional village woman in Cyprus. Dressed in timeless black attire, she sits gracefully amidst the picturesque Troodos Mountains, located in Ommados, south of the island. With her skilled hands delicately weaving lace, she showcases a craft that has been passed down through generations. The elderly woman's weathered face tells stories of a life well-lived and experiences gained over time. Her focused expression reveals dedication to her trade as she meticulously creates intricate patterns with every thread. The tranquil outdoor setting adds an air of serenity to this moment frozen in time. Cyprus, nestled within the Mediterranean region of Europe, is renowned for its rich cultural heritage and breathtaking landscapes. This photograph beautifully encapsulates both aspects as it highlights not only the craftsmanship but also the natural beauty surrounding this talented artisan. As we gaze upon this vertical portrait, we are transported to another era where traditions were cherished and skills were honed with patience and precision. It serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving our cultural heritage while embracing progress and modernity. Through T Teegan/Robert Harding's lens, we are given a glimpse into the world of lace-making - an art form that connects us to our past while celebrating human creativity and resilience.
