EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph captured by Navesh Chitrakar, we are transported to the vibrant streets of Bhaktapur, Nepal. The image showcases a skilled potter meticulously crafting earthenware oil lamps or "Diyo" that are traditionally used to adorn temples and homes during the Tihar festival, also known as Diwali - the Hindu festival of lights. The workshop industry comes alive as we witness an artisan engrossed in his craft, shaping each lamp with utmost precision. His hands covered in clay bear testament to the laborious process involved in creating these beautiful pieces of art. The dark color palette adds a sense of mystery and intrigue to the scene, highlighting both the traditional nature of pottery-making and its deep-rooted connection with Nepalese culture. From above, we gain a unique perspective on this creative endeavor. The air is filled with anticipation as countless oil lamps await their turn for completion. This view allows us to appreciate not only the craftsmanship but also the sheer volume of work being produced. As our gaze lingers on this mesmerizing image, it serves as a reminder of how human ingenuity can transform simple materials into objects that hold great cultural significance. Through photography like this, Navesh Chitrakar captures moments that celebrate both tradition and creativity while providing us with glimpses into different corners of our diverse world.
