EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Downtown Yangon street with satellite dishes 2" captures the essence of urban life in Myanmar's bustling capital. Taken on 22 January 2013 by Jon Bower, this image depicts a bleak and ugly city street in central Yangon, adorned with an intricate web of cables, clutter, and satellite dishes. The monochrome tones of grey dominate the scene, creating a stark and gloomy atmosphere. The converging canyon-like streets are packed with buildings that seem to lean towards each other as if sharing their burdens. Open windows reveal glimpses into cramped living spaces while roofs and balconies are adorned with grilles and air conditioners. The sky above appears muted, reflecting the overall sense of monotony and emptiness that permeates this urban landscape. Facades covered in television wires add to the visual chaos while emphasizing the overwhelming presence of technology amidst dilapidated surroundings. Despite its grim appearance, this photograph offers an intriguing abstraction of ugliness transformed into artistry. It invites viewers to contemplate the juxtaposition between modernity and decay within rapidly developing cities like Yangon. Jon Bower's lens skillfully captures the cluttered beauty hidden within this seemingly unremarkable street corner – a testament to his ability to find intrigue even in places often overlooked or dismissed.
