EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Dinuka Liyanawatte, a labourer can be seen diligently working at a construction site of a bridge on the sea in Colombo, Sri Lanka. The image showcases the sheer determination and hard work that goes into building such monumental structures. The unrecognisable labourer stands tall against the backdrop of an expansive sky and glistening water, creating a striking contrast between man-made construction and the beauty of nature. The creative use of perspective allows us to appreciate both the scale of the project and its impact on the surrounding environment. The silhouette of the worker against the bright daylight emphasizes their solitary presence amidst heavy machinery and steel structures. This image serves as a powerful reminder of real people who dedicate themselves to constructing vital infrastructure that connects communities. With ample copy space around it, this print invites viewers to reflect upon not only this specific construction site but also on how human ingenuity shapes our world. It symbolizes progress, resilience, and collaboration within the construction industry. Dinuka Liyanawatte's skillful composition captures both the physicality involved in building foundations as well as showcasing workers' ability to adapt to changing weather conditions. Overall, this photograph encapsulates both awe-inspiring architecture and human perseverance in transforming landscapes for future generations.
