EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we witness the intricate process of applying make-up for the Barong classical dance in the temple of Batubulan, Bali. The skilled male dancer is captured waist up, completely engrossed in preparing himself for his performance. The image takes us inside a mirror-lined room where he meticulously decorates his face with traditional Balinese facial decoration. The concentration on his mature face reflects years of experience and dedication to perfecting this ancient art form. As an adult performer, he showcases not only his ability but also represents the rich cultural heritage of Indonesia. This photograph beautifully captures the essence of Balinese culture and tradition. It transports us to Southeast Asia, where customs like these continue to thrive amidst modernity. The vertical composition adds depth and intensity to the scene while emphasizing the importance of this ritualistic preparation. Bruno Barbier/Robert Harding's photography skillfully highlights one man's journey as he readies himself for a mesmerizing dance performance as Barong - a mythical creature symbolizing good fortune and protection against evil spirits. As we gaze upon this striking image, we are reminded that travel destinations like Bali offer more than just picturesque landscapes; they provide glimpses into unique traditions that have stood the test of time.
