About the Artwork +

From Bihar comes the captivating art of Sikki grass, where artisans, mainly women, weave the golden grass into intricate and functional forms like baskets and figurines. This traditional craft reflects the region's culture and the beauty of natural resources. This exquisite Sikki grass artwork by Dhirendra Kumar is a sublime portrayal of Lord Krishna, rendered with remarkable finesse and devotion through the ancient craft of Sikki weaving. Made entirely from golden-hued Sikki grass, the artwork radiates a soft, natural luster that contrasts beautifully against the dark background, creating an elegant, timeless appeal. Lord Krishna is depicted in a graceful Natvarana postion, playing his divine flute, a symbol of his enchanting power and spiritual aura. His regal attire, complete with intricately made robes having folds, a feathered crown, and flowing ornaments, speaks volumes about the artist’s meticulous attention to detail and mastery over the medium. Surrounding Krishna are lush floral elements—stylized blooming flowers and delicate curving stems—that frame the composition and add to its divine ambiance. The intricacy of the weaving, especially in the folds of the clothing and the textures of the flora, gives the piece a sculptural depth despite being a flat surface. The entire tableau exudes a serene and meditative quality, inviting viewers into a tranquil realm of devotion and artistry. Sikki grass, traditionally used in Bihar for making baskets and decor, is here transformed into a medium of storytelling, as Dhirendra Kumar breathes life into mythological narrative with an earthy elegance. This artwork not only pays homage to the cultural heritage of India but also redefines it through innovation and grace, making it a soulful blend of tradition, spirituality, and artistic brilliance.
