EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us to the mystical Sunda Islands, specifically the enchanting Island of Bali. The image captures a mesmerizing sight - a portal built within a sacred area nestled at the base of the majestic volcano Catur. Taken in 1994 by renowned photographer Quilici, Folco, this photograph is an exquisite representation of Bali's rich cultural heritage. The composition exudes an air of tranquility and reverence as we witness this architectural marvel harmoniously blending with its natural surroundings. The intricate details of the portal showcase Balinese craftsmanship at its finest, reflecting their deep spiritual beliefs and devotion to their gods. As our gaze travels beyond the portal, we are greeted by the awe-inspiring presence of Mount Catur. Its towering peak seems to touch the heavens while emanating an aura of both power and serenity. This juxtaposition between man-made structures and nature's grandeur highlights Bali's unique ability to seamlessly merge spirituality with its breathtaking landscapes. Quilici's masterful use of photography adds a timeless quality to this image, allowing us to appreciate every nuance captured within it. The absence of color enhances our focus on textures - from weathered stones forming the portal to rugged terrain surrounding it - evoking a sense of tactile connection with this sacred place. This photograph serves as a testament not only to Quilici's artistic prowess but also as a window into Bali's soul-stirring beauty. It invites us on an introspective journey where ancient traditions meet volcanic might, reminding us that there are places in this world where spirituality thrives amidst nature’s raw magnificence.
