Mystical Song II

My work Mystical Song is inspired by the various sounds produced by temple complexes in and around Kathmandu. Here, prayer wheels, bells, the sound of Buddha’s mantras, prayer flags fluttering around Swayambhu all come together to create a mystical environment that is mystical. In the work I have shown the Buddha’s stupa, a gesture of universal worship, the wisdom mudra of the Buddha and the Padmapani Bodhisattva. The work is a unique mixed-media technique, prepared using mixed media techniques. After creating these with a viscosity etching technique, I’ve painted over them using metallic paints.
