EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "20079834" taken by Moser / Tayler Collection, we are transported to the mystical depths of Sierra de Perija in Colombia. The image unveils a hidden secret nestled within the forested hills behind a remote village - a ritual burial cave. As our eyes wander through the frame, we discover an eerie yet mesmerizing sight. The focal point of the photograph is an ancient mummified corpse, carefully preserved for centuries. A nightjar perches upon one of these haunting figures, adding an ethereal touch to the scene. Its presence seems almost symbolic, as if guarding over the souls that rest eternally in this sacred place. Loose skulls and bones scattered around evoke both curiosity and reverence towards those who came before us. They serve as reminders of our mortality and invite contemplation on life's fleeting nature. Amidst this solemn atmosphere lies another intriguing element - spindles of the dead. These intricate objects hold stories untold; they symbolize traditions passed down from generation to generation, connecting past with present. This powerful image not only captures religious practices but also showcases South America's rich ethnic heritage. It reminds us of humanity's deep connection with nature and its profound respect for life and death. Through Moser / Tayler Collection's lens, we are granted a glimpse into a world rarely seen - where people coexist harmoniously with animals and birds amidst breathtaking wildlife. This print invites us to reflect on our own existence while marvel
