Today starts day one of a 365 Photos Challenge started by artbytes26.
I accepted the challenge of John from his post Beach View – 365 Photos Challenge #1 and accordance with the challenge, I have to post one photo every day, unfortunately, in recent years I rarely take any photos. Well, I think this challenge deserves to be a motivation for me, and for that I am grateful to John @Artbyte.
This first photo is a statue measuring 30 x 20 cm made of silver with a frame of teak wood. An old stuff.
This statue symbolizes perfection in Javanese philosophy. Men and women, masculine and feminine, rough and smooth, complete both as a single unity. Perfection lies in “yes” and “no”, in good and bad, cannot be just one of them.
The three Virily users/friends I would like challenge are:
@Anastasia Vsplyshka @Della @Ãrsalan Âìjãz
*Be sure to check out Art’s rules and guidelines for the challenge in this post 365 Photos Challenge.
The master of poet is now a photographer. Nice one.
Yehehe… Just drawn by a challenge…. Hehehe… Thanks a lot, Cassy
Challenge will let us move out from our comfort zone and that’s what you did, my friend.☺
Actually it is not about the comfort zone, Cassy, but about the blog characters that I want to show here in Virily, but it’s okay, sometimes we have to adjust to the circumstances for our togetherness. Hehe…
I have nominated you in my post 365 Photos Challenge # 6 that I just submitted
Interesting photo, it’s very nice.
Thank you very much, Pamela
Beautiful art looks African. Or the islands? /great piece though, thanks for sharing!
It is Javanese Indonesian Original, Kim. Thank you very much
Very interesting photo, and thanks for sharing it with all of us.
Thank you very much for your appreciation, LaJenna
This is beautiful! I’m happy that we are going to enjoy another of your talents!
Thank you very much, Ellie. Actually, I do not have any talent, but only have many kindhearted friends… hehehe…
What a treasure you have. At first glance they reminded me little of the Mardi Gras masks they were in New Orleans each year. But this has os much meaning behind it. Good for you to own this.
This symbol, which is represented by the statue is indeed typical of Java. I have another pair of wooden statues, unfortunately, one ornate ear male has been broken due to falling into play as a puppet by the child of my nephew. Thank you, Carol.
They are absolutely stunning Albert.
OOOO this sounds like fun!! Indeed a huge challenge. Thank you for the nomination Albert.
I’m glad you accepted my nomination, and I’m also glad we can share many things here. Thank you, Della
Million thanks once again for including me in this super challenge!!!
Yeah! I chose to nominate you because I know you have a lot of documentation and love photography. Anastasia
interesting artwork sculpture. who is the artist?
Unfortunately, I do not know who the artist is because the sculpture was a gift from a client of mine, twenty years ago.
