EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Jo Kearney from EyeUbiquitous, we are transported to the enchanting world of Ganvie, a West African lake town in Benin. The image showcases a picturesque thatched house perched on stilts, rising elegantly above the glistening water. As if straight out of a storybook, the scene is made even more magical with the presence of a woman and her children peacefully gliding alongside it in their boat. The architecture of this stilted home is truly remarkable, showcasing the ingenuity and resourcefulness of its inhabitants. With its raised structure, it stands as both shelter and sanctuary for those who call it home. The thatched roof provides protection against the elements while blending harmoniously with nature's surroundings. Beyond its architectural beauty, this photograph also offers us glimpses into everyday life in Ganvie. The woman gracefully navigating through calm waters reflects resilience and strength, while her children exude an air of curiosity and innocence. As we immerse ourselves in this visual narrative, we cannot help but be drawn into the tranquility and simplicity that emanate from every element within the frame. It serves as a reminder that amidst our fast-paced modern lives, there are still places where time seems to stand still – where tradition meets innovation and harmony reigns supreme. Jo Kearney's skillful composition allows us to appreciate not only the physical beauty found within Ganvie but also invites us to reflect upon our own connection with nature and community.
