EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph takes us back to the vibrant streets of Gangtok, Sikkim in 1969. The image showcases a collection of intricately crafted masks, each with its own unique story to tell. Standing proudly at the forefront is a deity mask, exuding an aura of divine power and grace. Its elaborate details and ornate design reflect the rich religious traditions that have thrived in India for centuries. Beside it stands a skeleton mask, offering a stark contrast with its macabre appearance. This eerie yet fascinating creation serves as a reminder of life's impermanence and the cycle of birth and death that lies at the heart of many spiritual beliefs. Photographed by Alice Kendell in January 1969, this still life composition captures not only these mesmerizing masks but also provides us with a glimpse into Indian culture during that era. The mid-century interior adds an authentic touch to the scene, transporting us back in time. As we observe these masks closely, we can't help but notice their enigmatic smiles - perhaps hinting at hidden meanings or ancient wisdom passed down through generations.
