Kundalini Awakening, the divine feminine power of Shakti, possibly represented as serpentine sperm with ova, gouache on brown paper, inches, c. 1980's, 6 ¼ x 6.8 inches
This piece was carefully selected on aesthetic merit from the estate of a serious collector that lived in Jaipur, Rajasthan who acquired approximately 1500 tantric pieces directly from tantrika families and artists throughout the last quarter of the 20th century.
About Tantra art from Rajasthan - This piece is a fine example of a work on paper by an initiate of an esoteric sect of Hinduism. The symbolic imagery was informed by 17th century cosmological manuscripts, (with roots tracing back even further to the 5th century CE). Such works have been cited as being created for private use an aids in meditation to achieve a heightened state of consciousness and oneness with the macrocosm.
