the Kathakali trip

3 X 18"x18"

original art by George Mathen, Jun.'08

An arrangement of vegetables in my kitchen studio, photographed by Kamal Singh. A digital treatment with filters, of an aggressive Kathakali step in watercolor. A pencil and charcoal rendering of one of the most popular symbols of south Indian art. The first piece provides the colour to the form of the last to complete the familiar 'pacha' of Kathakali.
