Roots of Eternity
Sold by
Rukmani Devi
Description
Roots of Eternity by Rukmani Devi embodies the timeless Khovar motif of the Tree of Life, symbolising growth, fertility, and interconnectedness. Painted in deep monochrome tones, this work reveals an intricate network of branches filled with blooming flowers and perched birds, representing the unity between earth and sky.
The artist’s layered brushwork and bold, rhythmic line patterns create a sense of movement that breathes life into the natural forms. Rukmani Devi’s refined technique highlights her deep understanding of Khovar symbolism, where flora and fauna are more than decorative — they are vessels of divine energy and ancestral memory.
Why This Artwork Stands Out:
- A striking monochrome depiction of the Tree of Life in Khovar tradition
- Painted with natural pigments on handmade paper
- Merges spiritual symbolism with bold tribal geometry
- A significant piece from the Justin Imam Collection
