The corridor was warm, the shadows soft.
A royal couple stood carved into the wall—still and upright, crowned and timeless. Before them, two attendants knelt, not in submission, but in reception. Their palms were raised gently, as though to receive something unseen.
I watched the sandstone take on gold. The jungle light, diffused by canopy and dust, poured inward and gave the relief its breath. Every figure seemed to lean, not toward motion, but toward presence.
It felt like something was arriving.
The film would hold it, just barely. But the real work—the alchemy—would unfold later. In silence. In layers. In hours of light remembered through shadow.
And even now, I do not think of it as capturing. It was a meeting. A brief exchange.
The gallery quieted—
not from absence,
but from arrival.Light entered
not as witness,
but as gesture—warmth
curling into stone,
then stillness
unfolding
into breath.The kneeling hands
did not ask.
They opened.And the world
became
a welcome.

Zhou Daguan came to Angkor to observe—but found a kingdom that defied explanation. This introductory scroll welcomes new readers into The Wind That Carried Me to Zhenla: a poetic resurrection of the 13th-century emissary’s journey, revoiced with reverence, wonder, and the hush of temple stone.

There is a tower the moon remembers—where a king once climbed in silence, and a goddess wove humility into gold. Though the spire has faded, her presence lingers in the hush between breath and stone, waiting for the next soul who dares to kneel before the unseen.

Within the Royal Enclosure of Angkor Thom stands Phimeanakas—the Celestial Palace. More than a monument, it is a myth made stone: where kings bowed to the goddess of the land, and sovereignty meant surrender. A contemplative meditation on sacred architecture, divine right, and the quiet power that still lives between the stones.

The corridor held its silence as the sun began to fall. In that narrow hush, light slipped through the jungle and touched the wall like breath. The carving—centuries old—seemed to stir, not with movement, but with inward glow.
A royal pair stood at the center, flanked by kneeling figures whose hands, lifted in reverence, caught the last warmth of day. This was not a scene of myth, but of return—light meeting stone in recognition.
I waited. When the moment gathered itself, I exposed one frame of medium-format black-and-white film. It felt less like taking than receiving.
In the studio, the photograph unfolded slowly. Through classical chiaroscuro and meticulous hand-toning, the image regained its warmth, its breath. Printed on museum-grade Hahnemühle Bamboo paper, and strictly limited to 25 prints with 2 Artist’s Proofs, each work is shaped as a gesture of stillness and care.
May this print serve as a silent welcome—
a resting place for light in your keeping.
