EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Mohammed Salem, we are transported to the Al-Shati refugee camp in Gaza City. The image showcases the resilience and resourcefulness of Palestinian fishermen as they diligently repair their net. With a backdrop of shadows playing on the walls, an artisan-like atmosphere is created, highlighting the artistic nature of their work. The two unrecognizable figures engage in a mysterious shadow play as they meticulously check and mend every creased section of the net. Their hands delicately hold onto different parts of the net, demonstrating their expertise and dedication to their craft. This creative use of body parts adds an element of intrigue to the scene. As we observe these fishermen at work, it becomes evident that this is not just a routine task but rather a laborious action filled with purpose. Through this photograph, we gain insight into their daily lives and witness firsthand how they overcome challenges faced by those living in refugee camps. Salem's composition captures both the physicality and artistry involved in repairing fishing nets while providing us with a glimpse into an often unseen world. It serves as a powerful reminder that amidst adversity, human ingenuity prevails.
