Orukkam of Kathakali

A Kathakali performer checking his half-finished makeup in a hand mirror
The performer's painted face reflected in a small mirror
A performer inspecting his green and yellow chutti against a white wall
A performer adjusting the white chutti frame along his jaw
A performer sitting cross-legged on a striped mat as he prepares
The performer at work on his face, paint bowls laid out beside him
