EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the awe-inspiring beauty of the Ise-Shima Peninsula in Japan. The focal point of the image is the iconic Meoto-iwa rocks, standing tall and majestic against a backdrop of clear blue skies and tranquil waters. The photograph documents a significant Shinto ceremony known as the "marriage of the two sacred rocks". This religious ritual symbolizes the union between husband and wife, mirroring the harmonious balance found in nature. The Meoto-iwa rocks are believed to represent Izanagi and Izanami, deities responsible for creating Japan according to Japanese mythology. In this snapshot from 1974, we see participants dressed in traditional clothing, showcasing intricate patterns and vibrant colors that reflect their deep-rooted cultural heritage. A band can be seen playing ceremonial music, adding an element of festivity to this solemn occasion. Various objects are present within the frame: a rope signifies unity and connection while a cane or staff represents authority or guidance. These symbolic items further emphasize the importance placed on tradition during this religious event. Quilici Folco's masterful composition allows us to travel back in time and experience firsthand this unique celebration. Through his lens, we witness not only natural elements such as rock formations but also human expressions of faith and devotion. This photograph serves as a testament to both Japan's rich spiritual traditions and its breathtaking landscapes. It reminds us that there is profound beauty to be found when nature intertwines with religion – an eternal bond captured forever by Quilici Folco's artistry behind the camera lens.
