EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Trevor Page showcases the vibrant and contrasting landscapes of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The image captures a favela or slum situated on a hillside above the renowned Copacabana neighborhood. As your eyes wander through the frame, you are immediately drawn to the large letters spelling out COPACABANA on a building in the foreground. The photograph beautifully encapsulates the essence of urban architecture in this South American city. Rows upon rows of colorful houses cling to the steep hillsides, creating an intricate tapestry against a backdrop of lush greenery. This juxtaposition between nature and man-made structures is both striking and thought-provoking. Amidst this bustling scene, one cannot help but notice a small church nestled within the favela's maze-like streets. It serves as a symbol of hope and resilience amidst challenging living conditions for those who call this community home. Page's expert composition allows us to reflect on issues such as housing inequality while also appreciating the unique beauty that emerges from these neighborhoods. Through his lens, we gain insight into Brazilian culture and society - its rich diversity and complex realities. This print offers viewers an opportunity to explore Rio de Janeiro beyond its famous beaches, inviting us to delve deeper into its neighborhoods where life unfolds with all its intricacies and contradictions.
