EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of craftsmanship and creativity at the Villa Imperial de Potosi jewellers workshop in La Paz, Bolivia. The image showcases a well-equipped worktable, adorned with an array of tools and materials essential for creating exquisite jewellery pieces. The scene is bathed in warm light emanating from a torch flame, symbolizing the passion and dedication that goes into every handmade creation. The skilled goldsmiths who occupy this space utilize their expertise to transform precious metals such as silver and gold into stunning works of art. From this aerial perspective, we gain a unique view of the factory floor bustling with work action. Despite the absence of people in the frame, one can almost hear the sounds of hammers striking metal surfaces and machines humming away. The photograph not only highlights the intricate process involved in jewellery production but also emphasizes its importance as a thriving business. It serves as a testament to how traditional arts and crafts continue to flourish amidst modern advancements. David Mercado's lens beautifully captures this moment frozen in time on January 16,2018. Through his creative use of composition and lighting, he transports us into this world where fire meets metal, resulting in masterpieces that will be cherished for generations to come.
