Artisans of Fez

A tannery in Fes.

 

It is a humbling experience to witness the process of something that I unwittingly take for granted. It saddens me to think of the loss of life that occurs in a commercial industry. I take heart in the fact that nothing of the animal is wasted, but I can't help feeling a deep sense of sorrow here, despite the incredible artistry. A pricked conscience is a healthy reminder of the great gift that is life.
