Ancient Sacred Stupas in Clay
Embark on a Unique Artistic Odyssey
Are you driven by the creation of exquisite, meaningful art?
Stupas are Buddhist sacred monuments that represent and activate harmonious and healing forces in the world.
This is a monumental project sculpting, molding, building and firing 186 ancient Buddhist Stupas in red terracotta clay. The stupas are inspired by styles and traditional forms from a great span of Buddhist eras and regions around the world.
We invite ceramic artists or anyone experienced in art, crafts, or using hand tools to partake in a remarkable endeavor. The Stupas will surround one of the world’s most beautiful living mandalas at Odiyan. This large-scale project not only promises to be personally rewarding but also allows you to channel your artistic finesse into creating something extraordinary and historic.
