Krishna Balaram

Aravali is proud to bring you this exclusive made-to-order collection from an award-winning artist. The master terracotta artist is known for pinch pottery, which requires moulding clay by hand with a special pinch. On this intricately detailed terracotta plate, Lord Krishna is depicted playing with his elder half-brother Balarama. The elder brother of Krishna, Balarama, is a constant companion to Krishna and shares many adventures with him. The terracotta plate beautifully captures the playfulness and bond between the two.
There is a great deal of labour involved in this piece since it is extremely complicated. During the making process, clay is refined, clay is mixed, details are etched out of the sculpture, it is dried, and finally it is fired. Terracotta, firing is a very complex process, and if the right temperature and technique are not followed, the entire sculpture can be ruined. Unlike most artists, the master artist does not paint her terracotta pieces but instead achieves the colour by firing them at different temperatures.
