DhyanaSankalpam-an OpenStudio

Dhyanasankalpam is an Openstudio for Indian (Kerala) murals,and here we regard the pursuit of pure aesthetic experience,as Yoga. Its an exalted experience not just for the individual artist but for the whole community and even humanity, that which touches and consorts with every aspect of Indian life. We at Dhyanasankalpam create works that would last a millennium or two if not for posterity, like the murals of Ajanta.All that you have to ensure for us are walls that would last just as long.

Sasi Edavarad performs the 'netronmeelanam' -the final act of infusing life into the mural ..by giving colour black to the pupils and the eyes.

The mridangam acquired an extremely intricate design that reminds you of Pythani textiles from Ajanta-Aurangabad-Maharastra
