I spend weeks sourcing the right brass Prabhavali to match the specific energy of the hand-painted goddess, ensuring that the piece—whether it is Durga, Laxmi, or Kaali—feels like a living, breathing part of your space rather than a static wall hanging. I do not believe in waste, and my studio process begins with the hunt for discarded teak clock frames, which act as the canvas for these stories. The Pattachitra technique is rooted in history, but I adapt it here to tell a contemporary story. Each frame requires time—sourcing the brass Prabhavali, treating the wood, and then the delicate, meditative act of painting the goddess figures. I finish these pieces with found-object trims—beads, coins, and handmade tassels—that echo the protective nature of dreamcatchers. These are not merely decorative items; they serve as protective talismans for a home. If you are looking for a piece dedicated to a specific deity, I can guide you through the process. Whether you connect with the fierce, protective energy of Kaali or the benevolent prosperity of Laxmi, we work with the materials currently in my studio to create a one-of-a-kind frame. Because I rely on salvaged materials, no two frames are ever identical. Each piece is a marriage of restoration art and spiritual tradition, designed to be passed down as an heirloom. ## About Chandan Dubey I am an artist and vintage enthusiast who sees stories in the discarded.
