About The Artwork

This artwork has been inspired by “Shaivism“ and the Damaru which is known as the instrument of Lord Shiva Damaru is a small two-headed drum, used in Hinduism and Tibetan Buddhism. In Hinduism, the damaru is known as the instrument of the deity Shiva, and is said to be created by Shiva to produce spiritual sounds by which the whole universe has been created and regulated. the various legends associated with Damaru; The small hour-glass drum is often attributed to the lord Shiva’s famous dancing posture—the Nataraja. It is believed by many that the damaru produced the first dhwani (sound) also known as 'nada' in the universe. It was born in the void and Shiva danced to the rhythm of damaru, which led to the creation of this universe. Another legend has it that the top of the damaru symbolizes male creativity of procreation (the Lingam), and the downward representation stands for female creativity of procreation (the Yoni). Also, many say that the sound produced by beating the dramaru was passed onto lord Ganesha, who added more sound and thus—music was born. Some even suggest that it stands for words of the Vedas. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In the painting I have mainly used blue hues, straight lines of rays, the Damaru. Symbolizes the Lord Shiva ,the ultimate power, the universe and the beginning of the heartbeat of creation **The actual colors may vary from the colors you seen on your screen due to picture quality, surround lighting at the time of photograph, etc; ~ Painting is framed with timber and the hanging materials are provided.
