EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a combination of six pictures that reveal an intriguing sight atop a stick, which holds immense significance for believers during the "Endiablada" festival in Almonacid del Marquesado, Spain. Taken on February 2,2018, by Sergio Perez for Reuters Images, this image encapsulates the essence of folk culture and traditional beliefs. The figures perched upon the stick exude an uncanny aura that borders between creepy and fascinating. Each handmade creation represents a unique symbol or character tied to religious rituals and celebrations. The head-like objects embody personification as they stand tall against a wall adorned with masks and other religious artifacts. In this snapshot, we witness the creative use of combining multiple images into one frame to capture the essence of this cultural phenomenon. The absence of people allows us to focus solely on these peculiar figures that seemingly come alive through their oddly traditional appearance. As we delve deeper into Spanish folklore and religion, it becomes evident that these figures hold great importance in their incarnation during festivals like "Endiablada". They serve as powerful symbols representing various aspects of belief systems while paying homage to Satan himself. With ample copy space surrounding them, these enigmatic figures invite contemplation about our own beliefs and traditions. This print serves as a window into a world where culture intertwines with spirituality in mesmerizing ways – reminding us how diverse our human experiences can be.
