EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative black-and-white photograph captures a moment of quiet determination and community spirit in the fishing village of Bermeo, located in the Basque Country of Northern Spain. Taken in the 1990s, the image shows a group of women intently focused on mending the intricate nets that their husbands and male relatives use for fishing. The scene unfolds on the quayside, where the women are surrounded by the raw materials of their labor - bundles of wet, tangled ropes and nets, and the backdrop of the rugged coastline. The women work together, their faces etched with concentration as they deftly weave and knot the fibers back together. Their hands, calloused from years of labor, move with practiced ease, repairing the damage caused by the relentless waves and the bountiful catch. The women's heads are bowed, their expressions unreadable, yet their dedication and commitment to their role in the fishing community are palpable. This photograph by Philip Dunn offers a glimpse into the daily life of the women of Bermeo, whose work was essential to the livelihoods of their families and the village as a whole. The image is a testament to the resilience and resourcefulness of these women, who worked tirelessly to ensure that their husbands could continue to provide for their families through their fishing. The scene is one of solidarity and cooperation, as the women come together to support each other and their community in the face of the challenges of the sea.
