SHIVA Faces on a Hollow Lamp

Very often, it is the shape of the rock available to the artist that inspires the creative output. The marble demanded that it be carved out hollow within and given an outer façade of the most exquisite Shiva faces in their various moods and avatars.

The lamp sculpture looks complete with every part of the exterior carved out intricately replete with Parvati (Shiva’s consort), Ganesh (Shiva’s son), a skull (His terrifying form) etc. Light a small candle within or a small bulb and see the lamp aglow with a life of its own.
