Outdoor festive stage for Pongal and Makarasankranti at a Kailasa centre. A large golden draped backdrop and red-and-white hanging streamers with red flowers frame a central raised seat with a red cushion. Seated on it is a printed or painted depiction of a man with a long beard, orange turban and red-and-gold garland, holding a small object in his hand; because this is a picture of a figure rather than a physical person, it is shown as a depiction. Around the seat are potted plants in gold pots, a brass lamp, a tray of offerings and sugarcane stalks with kite-like paper decorations. A colourful rangoli with flower offerings lies on the floor in front.

A seated man in front, wearing a gold crown, gold armbands, a long pink-and-white flower garland and gold necklaces over a rust-red garment, sits on a leopard-print seat under a flower arch. Behind him stands a large portrait or statue of a saint in orange robes and a brown turban holding a staff, set against a red floral backdrop. To the right, a woman in a white and gold sari with a gold-bordered shawl stands with folded hands, and a man in white folds his hands in namaskar. Attendants in orange and white sit nearby. Fresh flower garlands, white blossoms and palm leaves decorate the altar and floor. The seated figure has distinctive crown and garland cues, so he is a person candidate, seated in ceremonial honour.2017-07-09August 12 20172017-08-12
