An artist works on an idol of the elephant-headed Hindu god Ganesha inside a workshop ahead of Ganesh Chaturthi festival in Mumbai, India, Wednesday, Sept. 4, 2024. MUMBAI, India — Rafiq Maqbool has been with AP for more than 20 years, covering conflict, politics, fashion shows, sports and everyday life. He has been based in Mumbai for the past several years.
Every year for 10 days, Mumbai immerses itself in a frenzy of paying homage to the elephant-headed god Ganesha, the Hindu deity of wisdom, knowledge, and good fortune. During this event, Lord Ganesh’s idols are displayed on public stages as well as brought into private homes around the city, where his presence is invoked and worshipped.
However, behind-the-scenes preparations for this festival begin months in advance. Idol making is a serious industry and the skill is passed down from generation to generation. It offers seasonal employment during the lean monsoon months, as many migrants travel from rural areas to Mumbai to help with the labor-intensive process.
I began photographing, and all around me were craftsmen who were concentrating on completing their labor of love as quickly as possible. A few artists were precariously positioned, high up on scaffolding, reaching out to apply a dab of paint here and there. The atmosphere was filled with quiet fervor and solemnity, and I, too, felt a serene sense settle inside me.
