About the Artwork +

In this captivating artwork by Harinath N, the intricate elements beautifully narrate the timeless tale of Lord Ganesha. According to Hindu mythology, the story unfolds as Lord Shiva, consumed by anger, mistakenly severs the head of his own son. Deeply remorseful, Shiva instructs Lord Brahma to retrieve the head of the first living creature he encounters. As fate would have it, Brahma encounters the majestic Gajasura, an elephant, and decides that its head shall adorn Ganesha's divine form. In a remarkable act, Shiva grants Ganesha not only the head of Gajasura but also the gift of life itself. Harinath N's artistry skillfully captures the essence of this profound narrative, inviting viewers into a world where myth and symbolism blend harmoniously.

Art Form

Kalamkari

Kalamkari refers to the ancient style of hand painting done with a tamarind pen, using natural dyes. The name Kalamkari originates from Persian words qalam (pen) and kari (craftsmanship). Paintings made on fabric and fabric scrolls are mentioned in ancient Hindu, Buddhist and Jain literature. Under medieval Islamic rule, the term Kalamkari was derived from the words "kalam", which means "pen" in Telugu, and "kari", which means craftmanship. This became popular under the patronage of the Golconda sultanate. Motifs drawn in this ancient art of Kalamkari, include flowers, peacock, paisleys and also divine characters from Ramayana and Mahabharata. Kalamkari colours are made mostly from vegetable dyes. The popularity of this exquisite form of painting has earned international repute for the state of Andhra Pradesh. Kalamkari art was the household occupation of several rural women and craftsmen in the ancient times and continues to be passed down from one generation to the next. Artforms like Kalamkari have started gaining more and more popularity in recent times because of their no-chemical process of creating printed textiles.
