Painting on paper
app. 28 x 20 cms / 11 x 8”

An oft-misunderstood esoteric branch of religious philosophy across Hindusim, Jainism and Buddhism; Tantra doctrines lay stress on self-awareness, eroticism, rituals, magic and meditative practice. A meditation on sacred Tantric images can heighten consciousness and lead the mind into the metaphysical epiphany of the universe…
In this series, we focus on vintage Tantra-faces. A meditation on these demonic faces forces the Sadhaka to come to terms with the seamier side of life, and perhaps - face the demon within?
The visual iconography of Tantra painting is diverse, Jaipur having been an important hearth. This is a small teaser from our rich and diverse collection of varied Tantric styles from Jaipur, feel free to connect with us for a dekko!
