EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the powerful symbolism of ribbons tied to a section of the current border fence that separates Mexico and the United States. Taken from the Mexican side in Tijuana, it offers a thought-provoking perspective on one of the world's most contentious borders. The vibrant ribbons, delicately woven into the cold steel bars, seem to defy their surroundings. They represent hope, unity, and resilience in the face of division. Against an urban city backdrop, this image serves as a reminder that even within cages created by man-made boundaries, creativity can flourish. The serene atmosphere is juxtaposed with the harsh reality of separation. The clear blue sky and gentle tide create an air of tranquility amidst this politically charged environment. As clouds float above like witnesses to history unfolding below, they remind us that borders are not just physical constructs but also shape our social fabric. In capturing this moment without any people present, Edgard Garrido emphasizes how these barriers affect countless lives on both sides every day. This photograph invites viewers to reflect on themes such as immigration policies, globalization impacts, and cultural exchange. Through his lens and creative use of composition, Garrido prompts us to question whether walls truly divide or if they merely serve as reminders for humanity's innate desire for connection across all boundaries – be it physical or metaphorical.
