EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the rich cultural heritage of Tana Toraja, a region in Sulawesi, Indonesia. In the foreground, traditional tongkonana houses with their distinctive saddleback roofs stand proudly against the backdrop of lush greenery. These indigenous ancestral homes are a testament to the deep-rooted traditions and customs that have been passed down through generations. However, it is the wooden mannequin dolls perched on the cliff face at the rock tombs in Lemo that truly steal the spotlight. These intricately carved figures serve as guardians of this sacred burial ground, where ancient rituals and ceremonies take place. The dolls symbolize protection and guidance for those who have departed from this earthly realm. The cliffside location adds an air of mystery and reverence to these unique gravesites. As we gaze upon them, we can't help but wonder about the stories they hold within their walls – stories of love, loss, and remembrance. ARO's skillful photography captures not only the physical beauty of this scene but also its spiritual significance. Through his lens, he invites us to immerse ourselves in this enchanting corner of Southeast Asia and appreciate its profound connection to history and tradition
