EDITORS COMMENTS
Making Charcoal" by Maryse Dardaillon is a captivating photograph that transports us to the heart of a charcoal production scene in Cuba. The image captures the raw and authentic essence of the labor-intensive process, as men work tirelessly in the dense forest to transform wood into charcoal. The photograph is set against a backdrop of lush greenery, with the forest's canopy casting dappled light through the trees. The scene is alive with activity, as men climb ladders to reach the upper branches, their bodies silhouetted against the smoky sky. The forest floor is strewn with logs, freshly cut and waiting to be transformed. The charcoal production process is a testament to the resilience and determination of the workers. Each log is carefully selected, cut, and stacked in a pit, covered with earth, and left to burn for hours. The men work in shifts, tending to the pits and turning the logs to ensure an even burn. The smoke rises in thick plumes, filling the air with the pungent aroma of charcoal. Despite the challenging conditions, there is a sense of pride and community in this traditional practice. The men work together, their faces etched with concentration and determination. The landscape is transformed by their labor, as the forest gives way to rows of charcoal pits. Maryse Dardaillon's "Making Charcoal" is a poignant reminder of the connection between human labor and the natural world. It invites us to reflect on the beauty and complexity of the production process, and the resilience and ingenuity of those who work the land.
