EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Alaa al-Faqir offers a striking view of the antennas dotting the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights, as seen from Quneitra, Syria. The image captures a vast expanse of grassy slopes stretching into the distance, with the antennas standing tall against an expansive sky. In this creative use of aerial photography, Faqir skillfully portrays the complex reality of military occupation and armed conflict in this region. The composition highlights both the beauty of nature and the harshness imposed by violence and military presence. With no people in sight, it emphasizes how these man-made structures disrupt an otherwise serene environment. The hill on which they stand serves as a reminder that even seemingly peaceful landscapes can be marred by political tensions. The weather plays its part too; under clear skies, sunlight casts shadows over the terrain, adding depth to this thought-provoking scene. This photograph invites viewers to reflect on themes such as power dynamics, territorial disputes, and their impact on both human lives and natural surroundings. Alaa al-Faqir's lens captures not only a moment frozen in time but also echoes ongoing conflicts that shape our world today. Through his artistry and journalistic eye for detail, he sheds light on significant issues while leaving ample copy space for contemplation or further exploration within this visual narrative.
