In this bronze creation, Nataraja, “the cosmic dancer”, mesmerises with divine grace. Encircled by a ring of flames, Nataraja, “the Lord of Dance”, stands upon a lotus pedestal, his left leg lifted, poised to trample the dwarf demon (Apasmara) of spiritual ignorance. In this dynamic dance, his hair whirls like strands of cosmic energy. The upper right hand beats a rhythm on the “Damaru (Udukai)”, echoing the cosmic heartbeat. Flames in the upper left hand symbolise the forces of creation and destruction. A cobra uncoils from the lower right forearm, while the palm gestures peace with the “Abhaya Mudra”. The lowered left hand, crossing his chest, signifies salvation. Nataraja, in cosmic ballet, embodies the eternal cycles of creation, preservation, and dissolution.
