Tunnel

This photo was taken in the commune of Camon in France in 2024.On one side of the tunnel are fields and parts of a forest and on the other side, the winding river of Somme.There is light at the end of the tunnel.We are often promised to focus on the optimistic side of things, making the difficult or the uncomfortable as an unfortunate but necessary situation we have to power through.But it is the tunnel that gives significance to the otherwise ever-present light.In this tunnel, we find writings, critical sentiments against a government that has abandoned its people, which, when expressed outside the tunnel lacks power, if not inaudible.In the same manner, it is in discomfort, in being comfortable with the uncomfortable, that critique is most trenchant
