In this traditional bronze statue, we find Lord Shiva in his dynamic cosmic dance.
Cast in Panchaloha bronze by Swamimalai’s master artisans, this divine form captures the unending appeal of Shiva’s Nritya — a powerful rhythmic performance of creation, preservation, and destruction.
Encircled by a stylized fiery aureole, each flame seems to leap from the open jaws of a Makara-mukha (mythical aquatic creature), adding a striking drama to Shiva’s poised form.
His hair, adorned with the crescent moon, the sacred Ganga, and skull-and-serpent ornaments, cascades in cosmic waves that cradle the universe itself.
The Lord’s garment, a tiger-hide dhoti with an ornate tasseled waistband, and the undulating serpent at his waist sway with his movements, while Apasmara, the demon of ignorance, lies subdued beneath his feet. Every detail on this bronze statute — the double-tiered lotus pedestal, the intricate swirls of his swaying waistbelt, and the glistening contours of his outstretched arm — converges to capture Shiva’s eternal dance.
