Ephemeral Life of Clay Gods - Limited Edition of 10 Print

Every year, over the nine days of Navaratri festival in India, the land comes alive with colorful pandal/tents, throbbing with music, dance, theatre, and milling crowds, paying obeisance to the beautifully adorned clay idols of Gods and Goddesses. The idols and tableaus capture fascinating narratives from the legends of the deities and are painstakingly crafted months in advance, only to be immersed in rivers and seas later. As these ephemeral idols take form under the loving hands of the artists, at prop-up studios in varying stages of completion, embodiments of the Creator being crafted by Creatures, one is struck with the wryness of the moment. And also, awe, because no matter the irony, they seem to wield sway, over our minds, and therefore the world.
