Tirth 2 (Sacred Cows and Temples)

This work stages two sacred bovine forms in overlapping profile, their bodies becoming translucent vessels for an etched city—temples, domes, and clustered facades—so that pilgrimage and architecture feel inseparable from living breath. A restrained palette of ash grey and warm ivory, punctuated by ceremonial reds and golds, creates a quiet radiance where ornament reads as devotion rather than display. The compositional doubling suggests memory and continuity: one presence receding like an echo while the other advances, carrying the weight of heritage with a measured, almost musical gait. Lotus blooms at the base anchor the scene in ritual purity, turning the ground into a threshold between the everyday and the mythic.
