EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of henna tattooing in Delhi, India. The vibrant colors and intricate patterns showcased on the arms and hands of two women tell a story deeply rooted in Indian culture. Taken by Philippe Lissac, this close-up shot allows us to appreciate every detail of this traditionally Indian art form. The image showcases the skillful work of a tattooist as they meticulously apply henna paste to create mesmerizing designs. The focus on the foreground draws our attention to the delicate lines and curves that make up each pattern, highlighting their decorative beauty. Set indoors against a high angle view, we get a glimpse into an intimate moment where these women are embracing their cultural heritage through body art. Their hands become canvases for self-expression, reflecting both personal style and traditional symbolism. Delhi serves as the perfect backdrop for this snapshot of Indian life. As one of Asia's most vibrant travel destinations, it is home to diverse cultures and rich traditions like henna tattooing. This print invites viewers to immerse themselves in the colorful tapestry that defines India while shedding light on its stereotypically Indian elements. Philippe Lissac's lens has captured not just an image but also a celebration of identity and tradition within this single frame—a testament to his talent as a photographer capturing moments that transcend time and space.
