EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Pascal Deloche from Universal Images Group (UIG), we are presented with a thought-provoking display of Plastic Virgin statues. The image showcases an array of these religious artifacts, each meticulously crafted to resemble the iconic figure of the Virgin Mary. The juxtaposition between the spiritual significance and the materialistic nature of these statues raises questions about faith, devotion, and consumerism in contemporary society. As symbols deeply rooted in Christianity and Catholicism, these plastic replicas serve as reminders of one's connection to their religious beliefs. Delving into themes such as spirituality and deity worship, this photograph invites us to reflect on our own relationship with religion. It prompts contemplation about how faith is expressed through physical objects like these statues while also highlighting the potential conflict between genuine devotion and commercialization. Set against a backdrop that hints at Europe's rich religious history, this image captures both tradition and modernity. It serves as a reminder that even in an increasingly secular world, faith continues to hold immense importance for many individuals. Through his lens, Deloche skillfully captures not only the visual beauty but also evokes a sense of introspection within viewers. This powerful photograph encourages us to explore our own beliefs while contemplating the role religion plays in shaping our lives today.
