In a cosmic ballet, Lord Nataraja, “the divine dancer”, graces the universe with a mesmerising spectacle. Enveloped in a ring of flames upon a lotus pedestal, Nataraja orchestrates creation and destruction with effortless grace. His upper hand wields a “Damaru (Udukai)”, its rhythmic beats echoing through the cosmos. “Agni”, held in the upper left hand, symbolises the dual forces of genesis and dissolution. A coiled cobra, an emblem of cosmic energy, gracefully emerges from his lower right forearm.
His right is poised in “Abhaya Mudra”, imparting fearlessness, while the whirling hair forms a celestial fan behind his head, mirroring the dynamism of the cosmic dance. His foot triumphs over “Apasmara Purusha”, the dwarf of ignorance, symbolising the transcendence of illusion for the pursuit of peace and salvation. Crafted from “Panchaloha Bronze” using the ancient “Madhuchista Vidhana (Lost-Wax) technique”, this divine artwork encapsulates the cosmic rhythm where creation and destruction harmonise, leading souls towards enlightenment.
