EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "20088042" captured by the talented photographer Michael Macintyre, we are transported to the enchanting world of Kyoto, Japan. The image showcases the mesmerizing Sagimori Shrine, a sacred place where Bugaku dances have been meticulously preserved for over a millennium. Traditionally performed exclusively by men within the Imperial Palace, it is truly remarkable to witness these young girls dressed in vibrant yellow costumes gracefully executing the ancient dance moves. While they may be amateurs, their passion and dedication shine through as they immerse themselves in this centuries-old tradition. The dominant yellow hues that permeate both their attire and surroundings add an extra layer of vibrancy and energy to this already captivating scene. It serves as a visual reminder of the rich cultural heritage that Japan proudly embraces. Michael Macintyre's skillful composition allows us to appreciate not only the architectural beauty of Sagimori Shrine but also provides insight into how art forms can transcend time and gender boundaries. These girls perform these old dances primarily for their own amusement, showcasing a deep appreciation for their country's artistic legacy. This photograph encapsulates the essence of Asia's performing arts scene while celebrating the resilience and evolution of traditional practices. Through his lens, Macintyre invites us on a journey filled with history, culture, and above all else – pure joy.
