The Dancing God is about a step into joy and liberation. The set expresses the idea of dancing as a form of release and merriment for both the self and others. The work plays with designs from traditional Indian jewellery, and themes of an auspice celebration, gift giving, and dancing, incorporating materials such as sterling silver, gold and pearls.
