Artwork location: United States

"Along the rugged Pacific coast of Colombia, a network of rivers, streams, and water sources winds through the land, serving as lifelines for those who depend on them for food and travel. In this image, we glimpse a scene that plays out often—a dance of boatmen, fishermen, and locals as they navigate the waters, moving from place to place in search of goods. They trade in a multitude of wares, sometimes hunting for gold, other times dragging hidden, illicit cargo. Their quest for economic gain unfolds against a backdrop of neglect, as the government turns a blind eye to the wealth of this forgotten land. It is a place of unmatched beauty, rich with treasures both natural and untold, where the abundance of life—flora and fauna alike—remains a silent witness to their struggle."

How does that feel? I tried to capture the essence of the environment and the people's connection to it in a more vivid way.
