“As a child, unable to enter the temple myself, I understood it as a special place where sacred rituals were performed, and that inside, everything was white and beautiful. In Cuthand’s paintings, the temple has an imposing presence, not simply because of the weight of its solid granite walls, but because of the belief system it symbolizes as it floats, totemic, in the background.”
