Hand Knotted Mix Media Wall Installation (183 x 254 cm)

Handknotted in Wool and Silk

In this portrait format painting, Meera Bai plays khartaal in her right hand and ektaara in her left. As she plays the instruments, her hands are raised in the air, her eyes half closed in ecstatic trance, her body sways. She is clad in an ochre coloured sari/dhoti typical of Hindu saints and devotees. This Madhubani painting offers a flat perspective. While she plays her instruments, Lord Krishna playing his flute appears above her. The music transcends her imaginations to meet Lord Krishna.
