EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite woodcarving featuring the powerful god Shiva, adorning the buttress of a traditional house in Bhaktapur, Nepal. The artful craftsmanship and attention to detail are evident as every curve and contour of this depiction is artistically whittled into the wooden surface. As one gazes upon this closeup shot, they can appreciate the cultural significance and religious belief that underlies such ornate ornamentation. The rich mythology of Hinduism comes alive through this representation of Shiva, one of its most revered deities. With Kathmandu's ancient cityscape as its backdrop, this photograph transports viewers into a world where mythologies intertwine with daily life. The vertical composition highlights the intricate carvings on both beam and pier, emphasizing their role as supportive structures that bear not only physical weight but also spiritual significance. Nepalese culture shines through in every aspect of this image - from the beautifully decorated house to the cross-cultural influences seen in its design. This piece serves as a testament to the deep-rooted faith and artistic traditions passed down through generations. Sirko Hartmann's lens captures more than just a mere snapshot; it immortalizes an extraordinary moment where tradition meets contemporary appreciation for fine art. Whether displayed in homes or galleries worldwide, this woodcarving print invites us all to marvel at its beauty while honoring centuries-old customs and beliefs.
