india song

one of my dream destinations is to visit india so when i came across these photographs i was spellbound.  aren't they magical?  i think the peacock is my favourite.

the interiors of palaces, mausoleums, temples, and holy sites were photographed with a large format camera and the animals were photographed separately in sanctuaries and zoos... the photos are a fusing of high resolution and analogue photography. the artist, karen knorr, wanted to celebrate the visual richness found in the myths and stories of india using sacred and secular sites to highlight the caste system, femininity and its relationship with the animal world.
