Description

Explore the profound rituals of opening the eyes through Chakshudana, a scholarly study of South Asian visual and media histories. Published by Routledge, this volume examines how artists, sculptors, and priests use these rituals to grant gods access to the mortal world. By applying this concept to material culture, the book offers a new way to look at paintings, sculptures, and built environments. This work focuses on the process of seeing through multiple subjective stances and diverse bodily engagements. It encourages readers to look closely at objects while maintaining a wide perspective on ecologies, found objects, and fragments. It is an essential resource for those studying the complex connections between ritual practice and visual art in South Asia.
