We live in Salt

Bonaire, Dutch Antilles, 2023.

"We live in Salt" portraits the devouring character ​of a small island in the Dutch Antilles.
The name Bonay (Bonaire) comes from an extinct language meaning "low country", while others say it means "buen aire" or "good air", given by the Spanish.
The salt of the Caribbean Sea moves quickly through the dry air though, eating away all modern things.
Once upon a time the Spanish arrived to the Island bringing donkeys to serve as a tool.
​Once obsolete, they became part of the wildlife.
They hide between the many cacti, providing shadow rather than food.
