EDITORS COMMENTS
In this powerful image captured by Ueslei Marcelino, Venezuelan refugees are seen disembarking a Brazilian Air Force plane at Brasilia International Airport in Brasilia, Brazil. The photograph depicts the harsh reality faced by these individuals as they seek refuge and freedom from their homeland. The crowded scene showcases the resilience of these displaced people who have endured unimaginable hardships. With bandages on their legs and bodies, it is evident that many have suffered physical injuries during their journey to safety. Yet, despite their pain and exhaustion, they continue to move forward with determination. The urban city backdrop serves as a stark reminder of the challenges that lie ahead for these refugees. As they step onto the pavement, each person becomes part of a larger group seeking solace and protection in an unfamiliar environment. The depth of field employed in this photograph draws attention to a child walking leisurely among the crowd. This innocent figure symbolizes both hope for a better future and vulnerability amidst chaos. Marcelino's creative use of composition captures not only the physical presence but also the emotional weight carried by each individual in this poignant moment. Through his lens, he sheds light on one aspect of an ongoing global crisis while reminding us all of our shared responsibility towards those seeking refuge from adversity.
