Eyo Masquerades in Shenzhen Street at Dusk

by John Knapp

Deep shadows cover the lower bodies of white-robed Eyo masquerades standing in a rigid line along a Shenzhen thoroughfare. A sharp rim light traces the edges of the flowing cotton fabric and the tall, cylindrical hats as city lights begin to glow in the background. The dry season pavement appears pale and dust-free under the clear sky. Behind the figures, the blurred geometry of modern glass towers rises, their windows reflecting the fading sky. The stark white costumes contrast with the darkening asphalt and the warm glow of streetlamps. One long shadow stretches across the ground, anchoring the procession to the urban earth.
