KAILASA SINGAPORE on 11/7/2021

A five-panel collage of a young girl at home. In the top-left panel she lies on a teal mat in a yoga pose, wearing a black embroidered outfit and blue trousers with glasses and yellow flower hair clips. The top-centre panel shows her seated with palms pressed together in namaste before a red cabinet. The top-right panel shows her holding a sheet of paper reading Swamiji, with a laptop and a black eye mask on her head. The bottom-left panel shows her standing on a teal mat in front of a red shelf with a framed portrait and a deity image. The bottom-centre panel shows a red cloth with brass plates of offerings, flowers, a kumkum container and a small lamp. The bottom-right panel shows her standing in front of a painted deity backdrop. Each panel is a photograph, so the collage counts as graphic with no physical people counted beyond the single girl.

Overhead photo of a puja setup on a grey woven mat. A hand wearing a beaded rudraksha-style mala and a yellow sleeve reaches into an ornate silver tray holding small brass cups, turmeric and kumkum powder in red and yellow, and a small pile of white ash. Below, two brass plates hold yellow and red powders and a dark block, with a brass kumkum bowl, a small brass vessel and a steel spoon nearby. Oil lamps stand at the top edge. No faces are visible, so no one can be identified.

A bare-chested man in white dhoti with orange-and-white sash sits cross-legged behind a long table set for puja, pouring liquid from a small vessel. Eyeglasses and a rudraksha-style necklace are visible. Before him are silver and brass trays with grapes, bananas, pink flowers, coconut-shaped offerings, and a ornate gold-and-orange festival mask or deity image on a yellow cloth. A copper kalasha and brass lamps stand on the table, and a colourful deity shrine with green and gold decoration sits at the upper right against a yellow wall with green bunting.

A young child with a small white forehead marking sits at a turquoise-covered table arranged for puja. Brass offering plates hold pink flowers, strawberries and dark berries, with a brass kalasha-style pot, a small brass lamp and a brass padukas pair in front of her. A brass deity figure and a ritual bell sit on the left, and a wooden shelf stands behind her. No a person candidate is visible.

Brass and silver vessels sit in front of a gold-draped seat, including a silver kalasha with a green leaf sprig, a brass tray of fruit and sweets, a gold ornamental plate, and a small decorated pot. Marigold and jasmine garlands hang above, and a bright orange cloth is draped over the seat. No people are visible.

To the right a pink-clad deity murti stands on a raised platform near a brass lamp. Three people are visible.
