An Ecstatic Experience
2015

A group of actors on a dimly lit stage, performing a scene with some standing on a wooden platform and others at stage level, dressed in period costumes that suggest an earlier era. The image has a vintage, grainy quality, with a color palette that is predominantly purple and blue hues, giving it an ethereal atmosphere.
