Cham Dancers Silhouetted in Lagos Abbey Nave

by Misty Stone

Pale, diffused light from an overcast midday sky fills the nave of a candlelit abbey in Surulere, Lagos. Three figures stand in deep silhouette against the bright window, their forms defined by the heavy, draped fabrics of robes suited for the cool season. Intricate Cham masks with angular features catch the faint glow of wax candles lining the stone walls. Warm shadows pool in the corners and along the floor where the candlelight fails to reach. The dancers remain motionless, their dark shapes resting against the luminous background. The edge of one mask glows faintly against the dark fabric of a sleeve.
