This beautiful, stylised depiction of the swan and peacock are steeped in faith. Both these birds are considered to be vahanas or mounts of gods and goddesses. The swan is associated with the Creator Brahma and his wife Saraswati, who is the goddess of knowledge. The Peacock is associated with Krishna, who wears a feather on his crown and also Kartikeya, the son of Lord Shiva. Using intricate designs and natural colours, National Award winning artist Niranjan Moharana depicts the sacredness of these birds through this artwork.
