Despite all that could be said about the Hindu Tantric Goddess Kamakhya, words could never prove enough to contain Her.

The very name Kamakhya means raging desire: indeed She is revered as the young Goddess of desire across the subcontinent, especially in the East where She is said to reside in a sixteenth-century temple built in the lap of the hills.

In this imposing brass sculpture from the Exotic India collection, the Goddess towers over Her husband, the ascetic Lord Shiva, who in turn is seated on a lustrous lotus.

Embodiment of Divine Power and Cosmic Energy

This exquisite brass statue captures the awe-inspiring form of Kamakhya Devi, a powerful Hindu goddess revered for her association with primal creative forces, fertility, and liberation. Handcrafted with meticulous detail by skilled artisans in India, this artwork is more than just a decorative piece; it is a conduit to spiritual contemplation and a testament to the rich tapestry of Indian mythology. The goddess is depicted in her multi-armed form, each limb radiating a distinct energy and purpose, symbolizing her omnipresence and multifaceted divine powers. The intricate detailing of her ornaments, the serene yet commanding expression on her faces, and the dynamic posture all speak to the profound artistic tradition from which it originates.

A Deeper Look into Kamakhya's Significance

Kamakhya Devi is intrinsically linked to the potent myth of Sati, the first wife of Lord Shiva. When Sati, in grief over her husband's disrespect by her father, immolated herself, Shiva in his cosmic dance of destruction, carried her body across the universe. Where her body parts fell, powerful Shakti Peethas were established. The temple of Kamakhya in Guwahati, Assam, is believed to be the site where Sati's yoni (vulva) fell, making it one of the most sacred pilgrimage sites for devotees of the Goddess. This statue, therefore, represents not only the divine feminine but also the cyclical nature of creation, destruction, and rebirth inherent in the cosmos. The presence of multiple faces can be interpreted as her ability to see and influence all aspects of existence, bestowing blessings and protection upon her devotees.

Artistry and Craftsmanship

The choice of brass as the medium for this sculpture is significant. Brass, an alloy of copper and zinc, has been used for centuries in India to create deities and sacred objects. It is known for its durability, its ability to hold intricate details, and its luminous sheen, which is enhanced over time. The patina achieved through the antiquing process adds depth and character to the statue, making each piece unique. The meticulous carving and finishing demonstrate the deep reverence and skill of the artisans who have poured their devotion into bringing this divine form to life. This statue is a tangible link to an ancient art form and a powerful spiritual practice, making it a cherished addition to any sacred space or collection.

How to keep a Brass statue well-maintained?

Brass statues are known and appreciated for their exquisite beauty and luster. The brilliant bright gold appearance of Brass makes it appropriate for casting aesthetic statues and sculptures. Brass is a metal alloy composed mainly of copper and zinc. This chemical composition makes brass a highly durable and corrosion-resistant material. Due to these properties, Brass statues and sculptures can be kept both indoors as well as outdoors. They also last for many decades without losing all their natural shine.

Brass statues can withstand even harsh weather conditions very well due to their corrosion-resistance properties. However, maintaining the luster and natural beauty of brass statues is essential if you want to prolong their life and appearance.

The best and simplest way to maintain a brass statue is to clean it at least twice a week using a soft cloth or cotton rag. This will prevent dust from accumulating on the surface. Dusting is especially important for outdoor statues since it is prone to dust accumulation much more than indoors.

To give a natural shine and luster to the statue, you may apply coconut or olive oil using cotton on every portion. You can use a toothbrush to get to the small crevices but do not be too harsh. This will make the brass statue appear fresh and new with a polished look.

In case you have a colored brass statue, you may apply mustard oil using a soft brush or clean cloth on the brass portion while for the colored portion of the statue, you may use coconut oil with a cotton cloth.

Brass idols of Hindu Gods and Goddesses are especially known for their intricate and detailed work of art. Nepalese sculptures are famous for small brass idols portraying Buddhist deities. These sculptures are beautified with gold gilding and inlay of precious or semi-precious stones. Religious brass statues can be kept at home altars. You can keep a decorative brass statue in your garden or roof to embellish the area and fill it with divinity.
