The beautiful figure of Lord Shiva, one of the Trinity, the other two being Lord Vishnu and Brahma, is crafted out of the traditional dhokra technique using the lost wax method. The figure is heavily ornate and the refine carvings on it plus the ornaments make the Lord a paradigm of beauty and sculptural excellence. Lost wax is a laborious technique. First, a model is sculpted of clay and dried in the sun; it is then covered with beeswax and more clay, forming a mold. The piece is cast, cleaned and again dried in the sun. Finally, it is heated in the ground for five days and polished.
A paradigm of the victory of the good over the evils, the tribal folkart figurine is a fine repository of the Indian tribal culture and traditions. Goddess Durga was born out the collective energies of all the leading gods and goddesses to kill the demon Mahishasura who conquered the three worlds. The figure has been brought out in the lost wax casting method which reveals a deeper sense of artistry and skill of the Adivasi Murtikar (tribal sculptor).
This work of metal art in Dhokra tradition portrays Lord Vishnu in his fifth incarnation of a dwarf Hindu priest called Vamana. The sculpture of the Lord in Brass alloy holds characteristic round umbrella in one hand and stands on a minimally adorned rectangular metal base. The statue with accentuated jewelry and clothing appears rather simple yet intriguing, hence differently captivating.
