EDITORS COMMENTS
A Time to Pray" is a poignant and evocative portrait captured by photographer Nicolas Marino, showcasing the resilience and deep-rooted spirituality of an old Amdo woman from Tibet. The image, taken in the remote and rugged terrain of the Tibetan Plateau, presents a profound moment of contemplation and connection with the natural world. The woman, dressed in traditional Tibetan attire, sits gracefully on a worn wooden chair, her weathered face etched with the lines of time and wisdom. Her eyes are closed in quiet meditation, her hands folded in her lap in a gesture of prayer or supplication. The simplicity of her surroundings - the stark, barren landscape stretching out behind her, the faded colors of her clothing, and the aged chair - underscores the stark beauty of her environment and the strength of her spirit. The image is a testament to the enduring traditions and way of life of the Amdo people, an ethnic group indigenous to the Tibetan Plateau. Despite the challenges of living in a harsh and unforgiving landscape, they have managed to preserve their unique culture and spiritual practices. This powerful and evocative portrait invites us to reflect on the universal human experience of faith, hope, and the passage of time. Nicolas Marino's documentary work captures the essence of the people and places he encounters, offering a glimpse into the lives of those who live on the margins of the modern world. "A Time to Pray" is a reminder of the importance of preserving the stories and traditions of indigenous communities, and of the power of a single image to transport us to another world and deepen our understanding of the human experience.
