Signed Expressionist Hindu Art Shiva Portrait, "Shivoham"

Working in a cool palette of greens and blues, Neelam Gupta depicts Shiva as Shivoham — "he who dwells everywhere." Shiva is the third member of the Trimurti, or Hindu trinity, who activate creative energy to recycle the cosmos through destruction. Caught in his long, wild hair, the crescent moon refers to the cycles of time, and creation that evolves from beginning to end.
