EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of history and resilience in the midst of a barren desert landscape. Standing proudly in the doorway of a 200-year-old beehive house, a lone woman gazes out into the vast expanse of sand that surrounds her. Located in the Ebla area of Syria, this architectural marvel is a testament to human ingenuity and adaptability. The woman's presence adds depth to the image, showcasing both her connection to this ancient structure and her role as its guardian. Her figure against the backdrop of golden dunes creates a striking contrast, emphasizing her importance within this rural location. The beehive house itself stands as an embodiment of traditional Syrian architecture, with its unique shape resembling that of a bee's nest. Its sturdy exterior has weathered centuries of harsh desert conditions, serving as shelter for generations past. As we contemplate this photograph, we are transported to another time and place – one where simplicity meets complexity; where nature intertwines with human creation. It serves as a reminder that even amidst adversity, there is beauty to be found and stories waiting to be told. Alison Wright's skillful lens captures not only an architectural wonder but also invites us into an exploration of culture and heritage. Through this single image, we embark on a visual journey through time and space – discovering the hidden treasures that lie within Syria's Middle Eastern landscapes.
