EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph captured by Alvin Baez, an oil lamp sits atop a washing machine in the Perez home in Naguabo, Puerto Rico. The image serves as a poignant reminder of the aftermath of Hurricane Maria, which struck the island with devastating force in September 2017. The low angle view and close-up shot draw our attention to the intricate details of both the oil lamp and the washing machine. The room remains unrecognizable, shrouded in shadows that hint at a somber atmosphere. Through creative use of lighting, Baez skillfully highlights the contrast between light and shadow, adding depth to this composition. The presence of an old-fashioned oil lamp amidst modern appliances symbolizes resilience and tradition amid adversity. Its warm glow against the glass creates a sense of comfort and hope within this otherwise darkened space. Although we cannot see any faces or specific individuals in this photograph due to its focus on objects rather than people themselves, it is evident that real people inhabit this space – their lives forever altered by nature's fury. Alvin Baez's masterful capture invites us into Ana Perez's home as she navigates life post-Hurricane Maria. It reminds us not only of Puerto Rico's struggle for recovery but also showcases how everyday objects can become symbols of strength during challenging times.
