Nicole Forrester, The Sudd. South Sudan, 2022
Lulled by the tranquility of flowing water, I watched a dugout glide through the shadows. With glistening splashes from his oar and perching on the stern, a young man arrived at his destination. Nestled between reedbeds, with towering papyrus as a backdrop, a simple, thatched structure serves as a temporary shelter for the dry season in the Sudd. It stands upon ground, raised slightly above water level and whisps of smoke enhance its fragile appearance. The fishermen have been busy gutting the night-time catch and hanging it to dry in the sun, using the smoke to ward off flies and mosquitoes from themselves as well as the fish.
Medium/Process: Giclee, Paper: Hahnemühle Bamboo Archival mounting, Substrate: Dibond, Subframe
Dimensions: 50” x 30” (127.0cm x 76.2cm)
Edition: 1 of 25
