This artwork is a homage to India's rich artistic heritage, blending the traditional Lippan art of Gujarat with the symbolic storytelling of Warli and the rhythmic patterns of Kolam in a Mandala format. The intricate layering of shapes—squares within diamonds, adorned with delicate patterns—creates a mesmerizing symmetry. The use of mirrors, a signature element in Lippan art, enhances the piece’s radiance, reflecting light and adding a dynamic visual effect.
