EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Stairway in apartment block, Cienfuegos, Cuba" transports us to the heart of Central America's vibrant West Indies. The image captures a sunny day in this bustling city, yet reveals the stark reality of poverty and neglect that can be found within its urban landscape. The stairway itself is an intricate display of ornate ironwork, showcasing the rich architectural heritage of this island nation. However, upon closer inspection, one cannot help but notice the damage and abandonment that has befallen this once grand structure. The neglected stone work and dilapidated pillars stand as silent witnesses to years of destitution and sadness. Despite its deserted state, there is a certain beauty in the patterned tiles and wrought iron railings that adorn each step. This juxtaposition between elegance and decay creates a sense of melancholy within the frame. Through Lee Frost/Robert Harding's lens, we are transported to a forgotten corner of Cuba where time seems to have stood still. This photograph serves as a reminder not only of the challenges faced by those living in poverty but also highlights the resilience and strength found amidst such adversity. As we gaze upon this square image filled with color and texture, we are reminded that even within despair there can be moments of sunshine - both literally and metaphorically - waiting to illuminate our path forward.
