Mirella Ricciardi’s visual storytelling and the power of her photography is breathtaking. She has captured the suspension of time and harmony with the rhythm of nature. The silhouette of a lone fisherman moving fluidly with the water in this series of pictures, taken in 1968 represent an ancient, sustainable way of life. They highlights human existence as a small part of a larger, majestic ecosystem rather than a dominant force over it. The “essence” of the unseen, evokes the quiet focus, silence, and spiritual gravity of the moment, allowing the viewer to feel the stillness of the water and the heartbeat of the morning. The harmony between human action, man and child, her daughter Marina and Shaibu Shakua is perfect. What photographic timing. 👌1968 Vanishing Africa Collection.
