EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable beauty and cultural significance of a cross stone, known as khachkar, located at the Sanahin monastery in Alaverdi, Armenia. The intricate craftsmanship and symbolism of this medieval Christian Armenian art form have earned it a place on UNESCO's list of Intangible Cultural Heritage since 2010. The khachkar stands tall against the backdrop of the ancient monastery, its vertical presence commanding attention. Carved with precision and skill by a talented craftsperson, every detail tells a story deeply rooted in Christianity and Armenian heritage. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported to another time and place - Eastern Europe's Eurasian region. The cross stone serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a symbol of faith for generations past and present. The choice to capture this moment in black-and-white photography adds depth to the already profound subject matter. It allows us to appreciate not only the physical attributes but also the spiritual essence that emanates from this sacred monument. Rosita So's keen eye has immortalized this extraordinary piece of art through her lens. Through her work, she invites us to explore different cultures, embrace diversity, and celebrate humanity's rich history. This print is more than just an aesthetically pleasing decoration; it is an invitation to delve into Armenia's vibrant past while honoring its enduring traditions.
