EDITORS COMMENTS
In this powerful print captured by Alessandro Bianchi, we witness the poignant journey of a migrant and her son as they leave an immigration center on the southern Italian island of Lampedusa. The image portrays a moment of hope and determination amidst the challenges faced by those seeking a better life. Through the fence in the background, we see an unrecognizable silhouette representing countless individuals who dream of crossing borders to escape hardship. The creative use of lighting emphasizes their shared humanity rather than focusing on specific skin color or nationality. As they walk leisurely towards freedom, their bodies are mere silhouettes against the backdrop of stone buildings and open sky. The composition highlights both physical barriers and symbolic gaps that migrants encounter during their arduous journeys. A hole in the fence serves as a metaphorical gateway to new possibilities, while also reminding us of the harsh realities faced along these border crossings. Despite facing uncertain weather conditions and wearing clothing that reveals their African nationality, this mother's determination shines through as she leads her young son forward with love and resilience. This photograph captures not only a single moment but also represents countless stories unfolding daily around the world – stories filled with courage, sacrifice, and dreams for a brighter future.
