Interpretation

The theme I chose for my bear can be stated as follows: "channeling the body's own energies; these can make you reach a level of calmness and inner serenity, enabling you to enjoy life in all its beautiful colours."

The bear illustrates the roots and the themes of Indian handicraft in the villages. I tried to give the viewer an impression of the coming-about of this aesthetic which combines the new and the old, tradition and modernity.
