EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a unique and thought-provoking souvenir found in the heart of Sarajevo's Bascarsija market, located in the Turkish quarter. The image captures an innovative form of recycling as used bullet shells are transformed into eye-catching tourist pens. The vibrant colors and contemporary design of these recycled cartridges draw attention to the resilience and creativity that thrives within Bosnia-Herzegovina's capital city. This photograph not only highlights the beauty of this unconventional artistry but also sheds light on the complex history that has shaped this region. Sarajevo, known for its rich cultural heritage, is a travel destination like no other. As you explore its bustling markets and immerse yourself in its diverse atmosphere, encounters with such distinctive souvenirs serve as reminders of both past conflicts and present-day ingenuity. Graham Lawrence/Robert Harding masterfully captures this moment in time through his photography skills, presenting us with a horizontal composition that beautifully frames these repurposed bullet shells. With Europe as its backdrop, this image invites viewers to reflect on themes of reusing materials, armament symbolism, and the power of transformation – all while appreciating the allure of Sarajevo's historic Turkish quarter.
