Vessel as Deity
Vessel As Deity, continues Minaal’s fascination with sculptural and aesthetic elements of traditional Hindu temple architecture. The concept of Murti (idol of worship) is abstracted through a recontextualization of the vessel to an adorned form, edifying it beyond a container. The sacred composition of the Vessels and their colour expressionism, the wall (aids for aniconic meditation) and the dot mandala, creating a Rasa (sentiment, essence) of silence and tranquility.
