Reflections of India
Color wave, Indien
2014
A closer look at the work
A boy sits with his head lowered in a brilliant red expanse of water. His bent legs and the movement of his hands form a compact, concentrated figure. Around him, bright reflections and small waves cross the red surface; a narrow current traces another line along the right edge. Colour fills almost the entire image, making the body stand out while also drawing it into the surrounding field.
According to the artwork archive, the photograph was made around the Holi celebrations at the Dauji temple in Baldeo. The local celebrations of colour are known as Dauji ka Huranga. In Color Wave, this shared festival setting is concentrated around a single person. The framing shows a pause without explaining his thoughts. A tension emerges between the intensity of the colour and the inward posture: what remains of a public celebration in one person’s quiet moment?
