'Devi' is an etching on paper made by Jyoti Bhatt (1934) in 1970. He studied painting, printmaking and photography, and was inspired by his mentor K. G. Subramanyan. He carved out an art language based on folk traditions and popular practices. He brings together many visual elements into the a composite narrative. His works occupy tenuous balance between space tradition and modernity, where the past as a vibrant repository of forms is translated into dynamics of the contemporary. In this print, pictorial image of Devi is re-cast and re-contextualised with a linear drawing of the frontal face of a woman, folk motifs and patterns. The portrait of Devi is centrally placed as an iconic image. The two-dimensionality of words and motifs around the portrait expresses the Tantric philosophy, evoking the power of self-evolution and self-involution, seeing reality as the intertwining dynamic and static principle of Shakti. Bhatt also made artworks like Kalpvruksha, Self-Portrait, Forgotten Monuments, Sita’s Parrot, Still Life with Two Lamps, Scattered Image under the Warm Sky, Tirthankara, etc.
