“During the month of March, Valencia Spain is host to "Festival de Fallas." This festival was declared an UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2016. Two years prior, I took this image during the ofrenda parade in which each neighborhood carries flowers to the Plaza de la Virgen. The long march is filled with as much emotion as tradition.  Each Fallera wears traditional dress of elaborately embroidered silk. This image caught a moment of support offered to a fellow Fallera as they pressed onward to the ofrenda.”
