In this beautiful statue of the Lord of Wisdom, traditional dhokra technique of casting gets a vivid reflection. The Lord is standing a deep sense of gravity and satisfaction is manifest here. A sublime finesse marks the beautiful figure. An excellent example of the ancient dhokra technique, the statuette is created through a laborious lost wax process associated with the tribal groups of northern India. 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.
