Silk Reeling Factory at Aurangabad Dawn

by Xavier Cote

Dramatic grey clouds loom over a concrete loading dock near Aurangabad as the first rays of sunrise break through the rainy season sky. Large metal basins sit in rows, their surfaces rippling with hot water where white silk cocoons unwind into thin, glistening threads. Steam rises steadily from the basins, catching the low-angle golden light and blending with the mist hanging in the air. The heavy industrial machinery stands in rigid alignment, creating strong converging lines that draw toward a distant vanishing point. Wet concrete reflects the pale morning glow, while the white threads against the dark water emphasize the utilitarian scale of the operation. One coil of raw silk rests on the edge of a basin, catching the light.
