Panels include a temple with orange drapery and deity murtis labelled "OKLAHOMA SOMNATHAM", a shrine labelled "SAN JOSE MADURAI", a room with a red-clad priest labelled "SEATTLE CHIDAMBARAM", a hall with seated devotees in saffron and white, a room labelled "Phoenix Ranchipuram", and a group labelled "VANCOUVER PURI" holding a handwritten sign. Participants sit on mats with oil lamps and offerings in front of them. The bottom-right panel shows a man with a shaved head and tilak, wearing a saffron-orange garment and gold necklace, seated on a golden throne; he is shown on a screen, so he is a depiction and the identity is a person by appearance cues of ornate gold necklace and saffron clothing.2013-01-02May 08 20132013-05-08Photograph of a large video wall showing a grid of live feeds from multiple temple centres.
