EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Chris Wattie, a group of migrants from Djibouti and Somalia can be seen following railway tracks towards the Canada-U. S. border as viewed from Emerson, Manitoba. The image was captured on March 27,2017, showcasing the determination and resilience of these individuals seeking refuge in a new land. The composition is strikingly beautiful with an electricity pylon standing tall against the night sky. The faint glow of light illuminates their path, creating a serene atmosphere amidst the foggy weather conditions. Silhouetted against nature's backdrop, the unrecognizable figures walk leisurely towards their destination. What makes this photograph particularly poignant is the creative use of lighting that highlights each individual's raised hands. It symbolizes hope and unity as they embark on this arduous journey together. Their silhouettes blend seamlessly into the landscape while also emphasizing their collective strength. The vast copy space surrounding them allows for reflection upon their circumstances and invites viewers to contemplate the challenges faced by migrants worldwide. This powerful image serves as a reminder of human resilience in times of adversity. Chris Wattie has masterfully captured both the physicality and emotional weight carried by these migrants through his lens. Through this photograph, we are invited to witness a moment frozen in time – one that encapsulates both struggle and hope for those who dare to dream beyond borders.
