EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Cecile Treal and Jean-Michel Ruiz transports us to the breathtaking Ziz Gorge in Morocco, where an ancient agricultural tradition unfolds before our eyes. Bathed in warm sunlight, a vast expanse of dates is meticulously laid out to dry, creating a mesmerizing sight that speaks volumes about the region's rich heritage. The vertical composition of the image allows us to fully appreciate the sheer scale of this operation. As far as the eye can see, countless clusters of dates are carefully arranged on large mats, their vibrant colors contrasting beautifully against the arid landscape. It is a testament to human ingenuity and resourcefulness as these farmers harness nature's elements – particularly the sun – to transform humble fruits into a prized delicacy. The absence of people in this scene only enhances its allure. Without any distractions, we are invited to focus solely on nature's bounty and marvel at its abundance. The simplicity and purity captured here evoke a sense of tranquility and harmony with Mother Earth. As we gaze upon this photograph, we cannot help but be reminded of how interconnected humans are with their environment. This snapshot serves as a poignant reminder that agriculture has been an integral part of Moroccan culture for centuries, sustaining communities while preserving age-old traditions. In essence, this print encapsulates both the beauty and significance behind something as seemingly ordinary as drying dates under the scorching sun—a visual ode to Morocco's timeless agricultural practices that continue to shape its cultural fabric today.
