Artwork and cultural context

A devotional image within its shrine

Flower garlands and yellow and red accents frame the central figure in the shrine. The eye follows an axis from the floor to the devotional image. As a photograph of a religious image, the work also reveals its presentation, framing and spatial encounter.

The Kolli Hills in Tamil Nadu have a regional temple culture that includes the Ettukai Amman Temple. In this image, identified as Kolli Devi, attention centres on the figure within the shrine and the offerings, colours and materials of devotion.
