The ferocious goddess Mahakali is beautifully painted here trampling over the Lord Shiva. The ferocious image of Goddess Kali has been given a refine treatment: Her bulging lips, eight hands with some weapons on each hand, the black paint all has given rise to a ferocious posture. She is wearing a garland of skulls and beheaded bodies. It is believed that by worshiping this goddess, we can get rid of the evil doers. She is very popular in regions like Bengal. Pata is a popular genre of painting from Orissa. Derived from the Sanskrit terms patta (a piece of cloth), chitra (painting or picture), Patachitra is a folk art form drawn on a piece of silk, cotton or any other fabric, portraying traditional motifs and imageries of religion and society. Here the artist has used water colour and pigment on a patti paper, paper cloth together.
