EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the mystical scene of Phra Mae Thorani, a female deity in Thai culture, twisting her long hair as torrents of water create a powerful flood. The image was taken at Wat Phra Doi Suthep, an ancient temple located in Chiang Mai, Thailand. Dating back to the 14th century, this national landmark holds great historical and religious significance. The photograph showcases the intricate details of the temple's interior, highlighting its rich heritage and cultural traditions. The presence of Buddha statues alongside animal representations such as horses and elephants adds to the spiritual ambiance of the place. The vibrant colors and horizontal composition draw viewers into this enchanting world where spirituality intertwines with nature. With no people present in the frame, it allows for a moment of introspection and contemplation. As one gazes upon this remarkable image captured by Philippe Lissac from WorldInPrint, they are transported to Southeast Asia – specifically Thailand – where tradition is deeply rooted in everyday life. This print serves as a reminder of how art can beautifully capture moments that hold immense cultural value while also inviting us to explore new travel destinations that offer unique experiences beyond our imagination.
