‘The Resting Leg-Rower of Intha’ is based on a moment captured on Inle Lake, Myanmar, by the Artist in 2018. When in action, these incredible Intha (‘Lake People’) fishermen are known for their one-of-a-kind rowing technique, where they stand at the stern of their boats and wrap one leg around the oar to paddle. This distinctive technique allows them to navigate the dense reeds and floating vegetation while keeping their hands free to cast their fishing nets. It’s a beautiful blend of balance, strength, and tradition that has been passed down through generations.

In this particular moment, the subject took a few moments to rest, a rare stillness amidst the rhythm of his craft.
