Ftv Midnight Hot Uncencored

Penida colors (2)

High cliffs overlooking the sea. A green meadow grass low, controlled by a few cows latte color. Limestone outcrop on the slopes and a wavy edge populated by low bushes looking for the gap. Grasshoppers spitting everywhere and flies in a messy plot where grazing cows did.

The gleaming limestone which is the backbone of the island offers new opportunities chromatic sacred architecture. The portals of the temples, a white blinding whiteness, sharp stand out among the green trees and gray of the surrounding walls. The ash uniform of the holy places from Bali, made of lava stone, declines efficiently with the constant switching between good and evil, black and white. Here, Penida, portals and pristine snowy elaborate altars, erected as soon as you grant rather bright. Over time and with the work of the neutral nature, changing in and then spotted a gray cast. And the transition takes place again, to fade recalling all of the conditions to the people the endless faces, twists and nuances that the malicious behavior weave pure soul with dazzling clarity. A shared knowledge that is perpetuated in stone.

The choice of figures that adorn every corner of the altar-squared indicates an original religious symbology. Body with winged griffins lion, swans meandering with spread wings, faces dominated by elephant trunks bent. Doodles and leaves and flowers. All embellished with limestone which emphasizes the full relief through an endless play of shadows. A chiaroscuro that is the watchword of this universe made alive by the scorching sun.

Everywhere you go, on Penida, it was accompanied by this dialogue between light and shadow, short strokes of darkness that limit, even spiritually, the overbearing extensions of positive light.
