EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Carrying my life - Phnom Penh - Cambodia" by Jean-Francois Perigois, we are transported to the bustling streets of Phnom Penh, where a woman's resilience and determination shine through. This powerful image encapsulates the themes of work, poverty, recycling, and survival. The photograph depicts a hardworking woman pushing a cart filled with her meager possessions. Her weathered face tells stories of struggle and perseverance as she navigates the chaotic city streets. The cart itself is an embodiment of resourcefulness; it is laden with bottles and cans collected for recycling—a means to eke out a living in this impoverished environment. Perigois skillfully captures the juxtaposition between beauty and hardship in his composition. The vibrant colors of traditional Cambodian architecture provide a striking backdrop against which the realities of poverty unfold. Through his lens, he invites us to reflect on our own privilege while acknowledging the strength that can be found amidst adversity. This poignant image serves as a reminder that behind every face lies an untold story—stories shaped by circumstance but also fueled by hope. It urges us to recognize our shared humanity and consider how we can contribute positively to communities like Phnom Penh. As we gaze upon this thought-provoking print from 1x Gallery, let it serve as both an appreciation for Perigois' artistry and an invitation for introspection on issues such as inequality and social justice that persist around the world today.
