EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Woman tossing grain in sun" captures a mesmerizing scene from the Suryamadhi area in Bhaktapur, Nepal. The image showcases an Asian woman engaged in the age-old tradition of winnowing, a crucial step in the process of drying and harvesting grains. In this UNESCO World Heritage Site, agriculture remains deeply rooted in tradition. As the golden rays of the sun illuminate her surroundings, this hardworking Nepalese woman diligently separates rice husks from seeds using a winnowing technique passed down through generations. The photograph beautifully encapsulates both the laborious nature of agricultural work and the resilience of those who toil under the scorching sun. With each toss, she skillfully separates valuable seeds from unwanted husks, ensuring only quality grains make their way into storage. The worn hands and weathered face tell stories of years spent working on these fertile lands. This image serves as a poignant reminder that despite modern advancements, there are still communities around the world where manual labor is essential for survival. Nic I'Anson's lens has immortalized this momentary glimpse into rural life in Nepal. It invites us to appreciate not only the beauty found within traditional practices but also recognizes those whose unwavering dedication sustains our global food systems.
