Metal Casting on Rock (traditionally known as ‘Rock Dhokra’)
This is one of my first self-exploratory artworks which examines my personal involvement (depicted by the hand which is the same size and shape as my hand) in the process of my maturation and affinity towards spirituality (indicated by a spiritual symbol of the ‘Charka,’ or ‘Mother’s Symbol’ on the hand). It focuses on my progression from a stony, hard-hearted person, (indicated by the use of stone to create the heart) into a softer version of myself (shown by the flowers engulfing the hardness of the stone).
