EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Juan Medina, we are transported to the vibrant carnival celebrations in the enchanting village of Luzon, Spain. The image showcases a group of revellers dressed as Mascaritas, their traditional attire adding an air of mystery and intrigue to the scene. Sitting against a weathered wall, these unrecognisable figures engage in animated conversation, creating an oddly festive atmosphere. The creative use of masks and disguises adds an element of hidden identity to the photograph. Each reveller is transformed into a character from another world, their costumes exuding both beauty and creepiness simultaneously. Their silhouettes against the backdrop create a stunning visual contrast that further enhances the allure of this moment. As they celebrate with fervor and joy, it becomes evident that this gathering holds deep cultural significance for the people of Luzon. The tradition upheld by these individuals reflects their commitment to preserving their heritage through unique clothing choices and customs. This image serves as a testament to how communities come alive during carnival season when ordinary individuals transform themselves into extraordinary beings. It reminds us that amidst our daily lives, there exists a realm where imagination reigns supreme – where walls become canvases for self-expression and celebration takes on unusual forms. Juan Medina's skillful capture allows us to witness this magical spectacle firsthand while leaving room for our own interpretation of what lies behind those mesmerizing masks.
