(Dhaka, Bangladesh) - Ho spiato i gesti di questo vecchio artista, tutte le mattine appena dopo il sorgere del sole, sulla strada verso il porto di Dhaka. Un calzolaio che, per poche monete, rattoppa le migliaia di vecchie scarpe consumate dall'asfalto bollente della capitale. Ho atteso, finchè un sorriso mi ha dato il consenso di fotografare i suoi dolcissimi occhi e queste incredibili mani. Mani di un uomo che ha lavorato duramente, per una vita intera, sotto la pioggia, all'ombra dei monsoni, al freddo e al caldo torrido. Mani rudi, dalle nocche nodose, come i nodi sulla corteccia di un ulivo. Mani vissute di fatica, che l'hanno salvato dalla sete e dalla fame. Mani dure forgiate dalla vita, tuttavia sensibili e morbide come quelle di un'artista che lavora la tela.

The work of man. Hands and feet make it almost animal, ape this gesture repeated and patient. Looking beautiful this image comes to mind the word dignity. It 'something internal, intangible, but valuable.
Compliments!
