EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Grace Liang during the 2010 Beijing Marathon, participants can be seen running past the iconic Tiananmen Gate in front of a larger-than-life portrait of late Chinese leader Mao Zedong. The marathon took place on a rainy day, adding an extra layer of challenge and determination to the athletes' already demanding feat. The image beautifully encapsulates both sport and history as runners navigate through the bustling streets of Beijing against a backdrop steeped in political significance. As they pass by Mao's portrait, one cannot help but feel the weight of China's complex past merging with its vibrant present. The rain-soaked pavement reflects not only the physical endurance required for such an event but also symbolizes resilience amidst adversity. It serves as a reminder that even in inclement weather or challenging circumstances, individuals push forward towards their goals with unwavering dedication. Grace Liang's skillful composition captures this momentous occasion from an intriguing perspective, highlighting both athleticism and environment. Through her lens, we witness how sports transcend boundaries and unite people from diverse backgrounds under one common goal – crossing that finish line. This photograph stands as a testament to human perseverance and serves as inspiration for all those who strive to overcome obstacles while embracing their cultural heritage.
