Wall Art | Embroidery & Drawing | Jaspal Kalra | Achraj | Exclusive Edition

The analogy of Nature that Kabir uses to compose a satire on true knowledge has inspired the artist to create this embroidered artwork series as an expression of humility and groundedness.

देखि-देखि जिय अचरज होई यह पद बूझें बिरला कोई॥
धरती उलटि अकासै जाय, चिउंटी के मुख हस्ति समाय।
बिना पवन सो पर्वत उड़े, जीव जन्तु सब वृक्षा चढ़े।
सूखे सरवर उठे हिलोरा, बिनु जल चकवा करत किलोरा।
बैठा पण्डित पढ़े कुरान, बिन देखे का करत बखान।
कहहि कबीर यह पद को जान, सोई सन्त सदा परबान॥

Kabir expresses in his couplet that spirit is minute as an atom but if it attains true knowledge it becomes magnificent. Arrogance, greed and status are baseless and doesn't even need a wind to destroy. Flora and fauna on this earth make efforts to rise beyond the race they are born it but Human being a higher race lives in ignorance and interprets his knowledge to be supreme. He ignores the nature and its analogies. Body and pleasures are an illusion, so is this earthly life of pleasures and true divine knowledge is the ship that sails one across.

This has inspired the artist to create this embroidered artwork with Razia, Azra and Mehjabi to depict nature and flora fauna in various stitches of chikankari like phand, ghaspatti, dhumpatti, sidhaul jali, hathkati jali, orma, bakhiya, rozan, teipchi, pechani and may more. The proportions of natural beings has been altered to depict the illusion aspect and humility.
