JIÉ - FOR GODS ONLY An actress ponders in a moment of silence. The sense of lonesomeness before she approaches the stage is seen here. The performance for the Gods in this UNESCO recognized ritualistic street opera is about to proceed. The red calligraphy stands in awe of her presence, empowering its strokes upon her, rendering of her mood and stillness into a powerful visual and emotional/spiritual experience. The balance of her presence on one half of the image, with the red stroke on the other, creates a yin-yang effect, which is of utmost importance to this operatic ritual to the Gods. 120 X 120cm. acryl on Baryte photoprint, 2006/2012
