EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Artie Photography showcases the mesmerizing sight of nature reclaiming its territory at the Beng Mealea Temple in Angkor, Cambodia. The image transports us to a time when this ancient Hindu temple, built during the 12th century under King Suryavarman II's reign, stood as a magnificent structure along the royal highway to Preah Khan Kompong Svay. The photograph captures an outer enclosure of the temple, where thick brush and towering trees have taken over what remains of walls and windows. The intricate details of Buddhist motifs carved into stone blocks are still visible amidst the encroaching roots and foliage. This unrestored site serves as a testament to both the engineering marvels of the Angkorian period and nature's unstoppable force. As we gaze upon this historical treasure being consumed by vegetation, we can't help but feel a sense of awe at how time has transformed it into an ethereal landscape. The juxtaposition between man-made structures and natural elements creates a striking visual contrast that speaks volumes about our ever-changing world. Artie Ng's photography skillfully captures this unique blend of history and nature, inviting viewers to contemplate not only Cambodia's rich cultural heritage but also humanity's place within it. Through his lens, he immortalizes moments like these that remind us of our connection to past civilizations while urging us to preserve their legacy for future generations.
