EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Benches" transports us to the vibrant city of Istanbul in 1988. The image showcases a park bench adorned with the inscription "Garanti Bankasi" situated amidst the bustling urban landscape. The composition captures the essence of civic spaces, where people come together to rest and contemplate amidst their daily routines. The bench stands as a symbol of respite, inviting passersby to take a momentary pause from their busy lives. Surrounded by lush vegetation and towering trees, this bench becomes an oasis within the concrete jungle. The presence of nature provides a stark contrast against the walls and military structures that serve as reminders of Istanbul's rich history. The architecture surrounding this humble piece of furniture adds depth and character to the photograph. It speaks volumes about how public spaces are intricately woven into the fabric of a city's identity. Photographer Filiberto Pittini skillfully captures not only an object but also tells a story through his lens. His keen eye for detail allows us to appreciate both the functional aspects and aesthetic qualities present in everyday objects like benches. As we gaze upon this timeless image, we are reminded that even in bustling metropolises like Istanbul, moments of tranquility can be found if one takes notice. This photograph serves as an invitation for viewers to reflect on their own surroundings and find solace in unexpected places. "Benches" is more than just a snapshot; it encapsulates layers of meaning encompassing history, nature, architecture, and human connection – all framed within one simple yet profound object: a park bench in Istanbul's Garanti Bankasi district.
