EDITORS COMMENTS
This haunting print captures a partial view from behind a banner in Sur, a historical district in Diyarbakir, Turkey. The image portrays the devastating aftermath of urban warfare between security forces and Kurdish militants, followed by the ruthless flattening of buildings by diggers. Taken on March 20,2018, it serves as a powerful testament to the destructive power of armed conflict. The scene is one of utter desolation and ruin. Debris litters the ground while remnants of once majestic structures stand as mere skeletons against an eerie backdrop. The creative use of perspective allows us to witness the extent to which this urban city has been torn apart. No people are present in this frame; instead, we are confronted with an environment that bears witness to violence and crisis. The abandoned buildings speak volumes about lives upended and communities shattered by conflict. In its stark portrayal of destruction, this photograph highlights both the physical devastation caused by armed conflicts and their lasting impact on individuals and societies alike. It reminds us that even amidst such chaos, there is still room for hope – perhaps in rebuilding what was lost or finding ways to heal wounds that run deep. Umit Bektas's lens captures not only a moment frozen in time but also invites reflection on the consequences of violence unleashed upon historic districts like Sur.
