Drying Food One Woman Only Portraits Togo West Africa Cassava
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph captured by Pascal Deloche, we are transported to the vibrant African village of Datcha in Togo, West Africa. The image showcases a vital aspect of daily life as a woman diligently tends to the drying process of cassava. The scene is filled with rich colors and textures that epitomize the essence of this enchanting destination. As the warm rays of sunlight bathe the village, casting a golden glow on everything it touches, we witness firsthand the hard work and dedication required to sustain their community. Sitting amidst piles of freshly harvested cassava roots, our lone protagonist carefully arranges them on large mats for drying. Her weathered hands expertly maneuver each piece with precision and care. This labor-intensive task is essential for preserving food supplies throughout the year. The portrait captures not only her physical strength but also her resilience and determination in providing sustenance for her family and neighbors. It serves as a powerful reminder of how interconnected communities are in their reliance on natural resources. Through this evocative photograph, Deloche invites us to appreciate both the beauty found within everyday moments and our shared humanity across continents. It reminds us that even seemingly mundane tasks can hold profound significance when viewed through an empathetic lens.
