Ogoh Ogoh Statue in Temple Courtyard at Dusk

by Alexandra Levine

Rain-slicked stone tiles reflect the warm amber glow of string lights draped across the temple courtyard. A towering ogoh-ogoh figure stands in the center, its painted wood and papier-mâché skin glistening with fresh moisture. Behind the statue, the backs of participants in dark traditional attire are visible, their heads bowed slightly as they prepare for the Nyepi silent day. The humid air hangs heavy, condensing on the dark surfaces of the carved demons. In the background, the faint outlines of Yogyakarta city buildings emerge through the mist, their windows twinkling with electric light. Water droplets rest on the intricate details of the statue's headdress, catching the soft illumination from above. The wet ground mirrors the hanging bulbs in streaks of gold and orange.
