EDITORS COMMENTS
In this vibrant and captivating print captured by Sam Panthaky, we are transported to the heart of India's Navratri festivities. The image showcases a group of Indian folk dancers from the Panghat Group of Performing Arts during a full dress rehearsal in Ahmedabad on October 9,2015. The dancers are adorned in colorful traditional attire, their costumes reflecting the rich cultural heritage of India. Their intricate jewelry glistens under the bright lights, adding an extra touch of elegance to their appearance. Each dancer exudes grace and poise as they prepare for the forthcoming Dance Festival of Nine Nights. Navratri is a highly anticipated festival celebrated across India between October 13 - 21. It holds immense religious significance for Hindus and commemorates the victory of good over evil. During these nine nights, devotees engage in various rituals and dance forms like Garba and Dandiya Raas to honor Goddess Durga. Panthaky's photograph beautifully captures both the energy and serenity that permeate through these rehearsals. The horizontal composition allows us to appreciate every detail – from the expressions on each dancer's face to their synchronized movements. This print serves as a visual testament to India's rich cultural tapestry, showcasing its devotion towards religion while celebrating with fervor during Navratri.
