Description: In this piece, I show how different cultures of India are harmoniously knit. Just like puzzle pieces fit together perfectly, all the different cultures in their glory form this perfect masterpiece. I amalgamateTaj Mahal, two famous classical dances: Bharatnatyam and Kathakali, a hand in prayer, some colours from the festival Holi, the national bird-the peacock, a pair of majestic elephants, classical Indian musical instruments - the sitar and the tabla, a hand holding a “deepak”, signifying the festival Diwali, the Golden Temple, an old Vedic script, iconic south-Indian food- dosa and idli, and finally some festive fireworks.
