  • [man], swan and a machine  Oil on A3 oil-paper 535 mm X 435 mm Framed with glass – 535 mm X 435 mm for Home and Office by artist C K Purandare

Title in Sanskrit - हा हन्त हन्त नलिनीम् गज उज्जहार l


The idea comes from a couplet in Sanskrit - an ancient Indian language.

It describes the plight of a bee caught in a lotus, as it closes its petals at sunset. The bee hopes - the night will be over, the sun will shine again, the lotus will smile and I'll be free.

But a drunk elephant comes to the pond and tramples the lotus.
