The Vasantham lamp celebrates the abundance of spring. The hanging installation is like a riot on ones senses, bringing together the craft of repousse and Kerala leather puppet making. The installation is an ensemble of copper leaves,
accentuated by the repousse technique and the traditional flower shaped acchapams, that represent nature at its abundance. The leather
puppet windows depict the effect of the spring season on man and beast. The tile mosaic bench placed below is a contemporary representation of a phukolam, the traditional flower mosaics made in Kerala homes and temples for religious
ceremonies and special occasions. The pattern has guided the cutting of the tiles, which have then been fitted together like a jigsaw puzzle
to complete the design.
