EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Clodagh Kilcoyne, a pair of protective work gloves hangs oddly on railings surrounding the Bombardier plant in Belfast, Northern Ireland. The low angle view emphasizes the significance of safety clothing and highlights its creative use as an artistic element against the backdrop of the sky and open air. With no people in sight, these gloves symbolize the dedication to ensuring a safe working environment within the plant. The image showcases how even mundane objects like work gloves can tell a story about our commitment to safety. As they hang in their designated position along the fence, they serve as a reminder of the importance placed on protecting workers from potential hazards. The copy space around them invites contemplation about workplace safety and encourages viewers to reflect on their own responsibility towards creating secure environments. Despite being devoid of any human presence, this photograph speaks volumes about our collective efforts to prioritize well-being in industrial settings. It captures an atmosphere where weather conditions may change but adherence to safety standards remains constant. Through her lens, Clodagh Kilcoyne beautifully encapsulates both practicality and aesthetics while shedding light on an often overlooked aspect of daily life at manufacturing plants like Bombardier's facility in Belfast.
