The Great Cycle


Late post today. Too much to do, too much to do...

Anyway, back at Art In Bloom from the section of the museum with south Asian art. I'm not sure which Hindu deity is represented in the sculpture (suggestions welcome) but it and the floral arrangement certainly suggest the cycle of creation and destruction, of life, death and rebirth. One of my favorites from the show.

Very intricate. I am reminded of a floral show I saw here last year at one of our museums.

Stop in from Perth Daily Photo. Sure is pretty if you have time stop by for a cup of coffee.

After an extraordinary trip to India, I used to know all the names of the Hindu Gods and Goddesses, but I have forgotten most of them, except Ganesh who is impossible to confuse. I have that very statue at home, and, although I am not sure, it may be Shiva. The floral arrangement in your photo does a great job of complementing the piece of art.

Nice floral arrangement. I think this goddess's name is Grace, but I'm not sure.
