EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Khalil Ashawi, we are transported to the bustling city of Idlib in Syria during the holy month of Ramadan. The image showcases a traditional bakery where bread is being baked before the time for iftar, or breaking fast. It beautifully captures the essence of faith and abundance as multiple loaves of fresh bread line a conveyor belt, ready to nourish those observing their religious obligations. The composition highlights the creative use of space within the bakery's interior, with sacks filled with flour neatly stacked against one wall. The choice of warm lighting adds an inviting touch to this sacred place where culinary traditions intertwine with religious practices. As we delve deeper into this snapshot, it becomes apparent that it represents more than just food production. It symbolizes unity and devotion as people come together to break their fasts after sunset prayers. The aroma wafting from these freshly baked loaves serves as a reminder of shared beliefs and communal harmony. Khalil Ashawi's photograph encapsulates not only the significance of Ramadan but also sheds light on how religion permeates various aspects of daily life in Idlib. Through his lens, he invites us to appreciate both the craftsmanship involved in baking bread and its role in fostering spiritual connections within communities.
