Rolf Nobel's 'Workers of the Sea' Highlights Threats to Traditional Livelihoods
Photographer Rolf Nobel has released his latest book, 'Workers of the Sea', showcasing images of people from four continents whose traditional livelihoods are under threat. Nobel, who grew up in Hamburg and has visited nearly 50 countries professionally, was inspired by his father's work in the harbor and his lifelong fascination with the sea.
The book features fishermen, seaweed collectors, and lighthouse keepers from various parts of the world. Nobel captured their daily struggles and the challenges they face in sustaining their traditional ways of life. He visited remote locations, from the coasts of Africa to the islands of the Pacific, to document the stories of these 'workers of the sea'.
Nobel's work is a testament to the resilience and determination of these communities in the face of increasing threats to their livelihoods. His photographs highlight the impact of climate change, overfishing, and other environmental issues on their lives and cultures.
Through 'Workers of the Sea', Rolf Nobel aims to raise awareness about the challenges faced by coastal communities worldwide. His photographs serve as a reminder of the importance of preserving traditional livelihoods and the need for sustainable practices in the face of a changing world.
