Altar Blooming Deity East Indian Ferocious Fierce Hindu Hinduism Marigold Shrine Totem Kali Spiritualism
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the powerful presence of Kali, the Hindu goddess of destruction. The image captures a moment in time where Kali's totem stands tall, both inside and outside an Indian temple. The vibrant colors of blooming marigolds beautifully contrast with the fierce deity, creating a visually striking scene. Kali is depicted as a contemporary sculpture within this sacred space, exuding spiritualism and strength. Her ferocious expression embodies her role as a destroyer of evil forces and protector of devotees. The intricate details carved into her statue highlight the craftsmanship and devotion that went into its creation. The altar on which Kali stands serves as a shrine for worshippers seeking solace or guidance from this divine figure. It is evident that this place holds great significance to those who practice Hinduism in South Asia. Alain Evrard/Robert Harding expertly captures the essence of Kali through their lens, showcasing her commanding presence against both indoor and outdoor backdrops. This photograph not only celebrates religious iconography but also invites viewers to appreciate the rich cultural heritage found in India. Through color imagery and horizontal composition, this print transports us to another world—one filled with spirituality, tradition, and reverence for deities like Kali. It serves as a reminder of the diversity found across Asia's religious landscape while honoring one particular facet: Hinduism's profound connection between worshipper and god.
