Woman Carrying Water in Maradi Evening Shadow

by Casey Levine

Cool evening fog softens the air around a woman walking through the deep shadows of a Maradi street. She balances a large clay vessel on her head, her posture straight and steady against the weight. The last blue light of dusk outlines her silhouette with a sharp rim of pale illumination, separating her form from the darkening surroundings. Her clothing drapes in heavy folds, absorbing the dim light while the vessel reflects a faint, cool sheen. Dust motes hang suspended in the faint air near the ground. The rough texture of her headwrap contrasts with the smooth curve of the pot. One shadow stretches long across the dusty path ahead of her feet.
