Circle of Harvest by Sugiya Devi

"Circle of Harvest by Sugiya Devi is a 2015 Khovar painting, where Sugiya Devi presents a pair of oxen flanking a central form reminiscent of a plough or harvest altar, framed by circular floral motifs. The repetitive wheel pattern around the border gives a sense of endless movement—echoing the cycles of sowing and reaping that define rural life. Executed in black on beige, the piece captures both ritual symbolism and the rhythm of agricultural life.

Why This Artwork Stands Out:

• Merges animal, floral, and geometric motifs within one narrative frame.
• The circular repetition conveys continuity and communal rhythm.
• Combines traditional Khovar motifs with a distinctly contemporary clarity.
• A reflection of daily labor transformed into sacred art.
