Archival Note Card | Tantra - #4

A grey figure with many arms stands on a yellow ground splashed with red.

This is an archival note card from the Tantra series titled Inception. It is archival paper. Tantra is a broad family of South Asian Hindu and Buddhist traditions, and tantric painting often uses bold color and simplified symbolic forms to suggest cosmic energy. A tall grey figure with a fierce face holds snakes in raised hands, a red and orange disc at the belly. Small green attendants kneel at the lower corners. Red spatter dots the bright yellow ground inside a dark border. It is 5 inches long and 7 high.

A loud yellow background, and the figure holds the line.
