EDITORS COMMENTS
In this black and white portrait, Joxe Inazio Kuesta Garmendia takes us on a visual journey to the heart of Ethiopia's Surma tribe. The print showcases two women adorned with intricate face paint, their striking features telling stories of tradition, culture, and resilience. With every stroke of paint delicately applied to their faces, these indigenous women proudly display their tribal identity. Their eyes gaze into the distance with an air of wisdom and strength that transcends time. Through this documentary-style photograph, we are granted a glimpse into the rich heritage and customs that have shaped generations within the Surma community. The monochromatic tones add depth to the image, emphasizing the raw beauty found in simplicity. It is as if we can feel the texture of each brushstroke on their skin - a testament to Garmendia's skillful portrayal of these remarkable subjects. This powerful portrait serves as a reminder of our shared humanity and celebrates diversity in all its forms. It invites us to reflect upon our own cultural roots while fostering appreciation for those who continue to preserve ancient traditions amidst an ever-changing world. Gazing at this print from 1x Gallery allows us to witness firsthand the indomitable spirit that resides within these Surma tribe women – an enduring symbol of pride and resilience etched onto their painted faces for eternity.
