Holy talapus

My "Worship" project focussed on Hindu and Christian iconography and I did a series of drawings of gods, which I experimented and further developed, with the idea of using them as prints on fabric for clothing. In my final photoshoot, you can see that K is wearing a large Shiva print, which is the end section of a sari worn in the "fisherwoman's style". Here are some of the other prints I made before deciding to use the Shiva print (top).

All of these images were created from scratch by me (as are pretty much all the
images on my blog, but these ones are my actual work). Please, please do not repost
them without crediting me as they took many, many, many hours of hard work!


Ps. Should any questions about cultural appropriation arise, I am ready to answer.
