“Abstract Hieroglyphics” is a striking original artwork by Gautam Mazumdar that transforms a rugged stone slate from Dharamshala into a modern relic of ancient Egypt. The textured stone surface recalls the weathered grandeur of temple walls, while vibrant strokes of yellow, white, and blue bring timeless symbols to life.

At the heart of the composition are powerful Egyptian motifs such as the Ankh, representing life and eternity, alongside the sacred Ben-Ben triangle, an emblem of creation and pyramid form. Below, the glowing Eye of Horus radiates protection and divine vision.

Surrounding elements like the bird, serpent, and solar arc evoke harmony between nature and spirit. Through this elegant blend of colour, texture, and symbolism, Mazumdar bridges Egypt’s mystical iconography with a contemporary artistic voice.
