Carved from richly hued sandstone, this sculpture captures a moment of introspective stillness and embodied grace. The female figure sits cross-legged, one knee raised and gently clasped by her hand, the other hand resting softly on the base—her posture relaxed, grounded, and sensuously poised.
Her head is slightly bowed, eyes closed in quiet contemplation, suggesting a deep inner world of thought or spiritual reflection.
The sculptural form is both raw and refined, true to the elemental nature of sandstone, whose natural textures and earthy tones evoke a connection with the soil and spirit of the land.
Her elongated earlobes, adorned with large circular ornaments, and the towering, flame-like coiffure echo the stylistic traditions of early Indian yakshi figures and tribal goddess imagery. Every curve of her body is rendered with subtlety, not as ornamentation, but as an affirmation of feminine power, fertility, and serenity.
The figure’s nudity is presented not as exposure, but as a return to primal, sacred wholeness—a theme often found in the art of fertility, nature spirits, and divine femininity in Indian tradition. There is no trace of self-consciousness, only the quiet poise of someone attuned to body, earth, and breath.
