About the Artwork +

Priti Karn portrays captivating artwork that transports the viewers into the mystical realm, where cosmic duality merges into harmonious unity. At the heart of this mesmerising painting stands Ardhanarishvara, a unique and powerful representation of the divine, where Shiva's half is depicted in deep black and Parvati's half in vibrant yellow. The division of colours symbolises the contrasting yet complementary aspects of the cosmic union. The artwork symbolises the cosmic balance of male and female energies, the interdependence of creation and destruction, and the eternal cycle of life. The artwork captures the essence of this sacred representation with breathtaking beauty and intricate detail, evoking a sense of reverence and unity with the divine.

Madhubani

Madhubani art (the term ‘Madhubani’ translates to ‘forest of honey’) originating from the Mithila region of Bihar, India, is a traditional art form celebrated for its beautiful patterns, vibrant colors, and rich cultural significance. Traditionally, these paintings were executed by women on the walls and floors of homes during festivals, weddings, and religious ceremonies. The paintings depict subjects based on Hindu mythology, nature, folklore, and everyday life. Overall, Madhubani art is the creative representation of all the motifs, colors, and forms found in the vicinity and incorporates a blend of history, tradition, and mythology. Legend There are various legends associated with Madhubani art. However, one of the popular beliefs states that King Janak (Father of Sita mentioned in Ramayana) commissioned craftsmen to decorate the state to celebrate her daughter’s wedding with lord Rama. Hence, establishing the tradition of Madhubani art in the region. Tradition and Technique Madhubani artists use natural pigments derived from plants, flowers, and minerals to create the art. Traditionally they hand-painted the designs using bamboo sticks or twigs; however, brushes are generally used these days. The common motifs used in the composition include geometric shapes, floral designs, peacocks, fish, elephants, and scenes from Hindu epics. Each motif carries its own symbolism, often representing fertility, prosperity, love, and harmony. In the 1960s, a severe drought prompted the Indian government to support local artisans that gained international recognition for Madhubani art. Since then, Madhubani art has evolved from wall and floor paintings to various mediums, including canvases, textiles, pottery, and even contemporary art installations.
