EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by P. Ravikumar, we are transported to the vibrant streets of Chennai during the Aadi Kiruthigai festival. The image showcases a Hindu devotee immersed in his faith as he participates in a religious procession dedicated to Lord Murugan, one of the most revered deities in Hinduism. The close-up shot allows us to witness an extraordinary display of devotion and sacrifice. Unrecognizable due to the depth of field and back view perspective, the man's body is adorned with hooks pierced into his back, symbolizing his unwavering commitment to his beliefs. This traditional way of life highlights the rich cultural heritage that persists in Eastern Orthodox communities. Amidst a sea of people, this photograph captures both love and pain intertwined within religious rituals. The creative use of copy space draws our attention solely on this devotee's act of worship while leaving room for interpretation. As we delve deeper into this powerful image, it serves as a reminder that faith can manifest itself in various forms across different cultures. It prompts contemplation about how individuals express their spirituality and find solace through traditions passed down through generations. P. Ravikumar's remarkable photography encapsulates not only a moment frozen in time but also invites viewers from all walks of life to appreciate diverse religious practices worldwide without commercial intent or mention thereof.
