Event Description

Explore the intriguing world of vāhanas, Ganaas, Gandharvas, Yaazhis, and other celestial companions that flank the divine.

Moderated by Professor Asijit Datta, this panel featuring Mrinal Kulkarni, K. Kesava Rajarajan and K. Hari Kumar will delve into the posthumanist lens through which we can understand the vahanas and celestial retinues. Exploring themes of decentralization, hybridity, and the blurring of boundaries between human and animal, the discussion will draw from multiple perspectives – literature, art, and architecture.

This event is in conjunction with the exhibition In Celestial Company.
