With a visage that exudes both serenity and power, this artwork portrays Mahakala, “the Tibetan Buddhist deity”, the fierce yet compassionate “Dharmapala” (the Protector of Dharma). His three eyes pierce through the veil of ignorance, offering omniscience and wisdom. Adorned with a crown embellished by “five skulls”, symbolising the transmutation of negative emotions into enlightenment, the mask is a mesmerising testament to the interplay of life and death. Made from brass, this artwork signifies the union of wrathful and benevolent forces within “Mahakala”, “a guardian of the Dharma”, who guides devotees on the path of enlightenment, ultimately freeing them from suffering.
