“Shakti’s Fierce Form: A Primal Resonance” is a powerful and primal artwork by Gautam Mazumdar, inspired by the raw spirit of ancient cave paintings and India’s eternal mythological energy. The composition reimagines the fierce victory of Goddess Durga over Mahishasura, expressed through elemental strokes and earthy tones reminiscent of prehistoric shelters like Bhimbetka.

On the left, Durga emerges as a multi-armed force of divine strength, while the lion and demon figure create a dramatic balance between light and darkness. Surrounding handprints and tribal silhouettes echo ancestral witnesses to this timeless cosmic struggle.

This artwork is a symbolic invocation of Shakti, the primal creative power that continues to shape existence through myth, memory, and spiritual resonance.
