This high relief bronze sculpture attached to a wooden base depicts the head and torso of a village woman. The sculpture features a face with distinct elements that seems to be a headdress or draped fabric around the head and shoulders. The figure is adorned with geometric patterns and designs particularly on the chest area, which add to the sculpture's texture and visual interest.
The sculpture's style reflects Goud's fusion of village nostalgia with surreal and sometimes erotic elements. It is likely part of a series of works exploring figures and forms inspired by his childhood in rural Andhra Pradesh. The use of bronze and the detailed patterns are characteristic of his sculptural work, which often includes terracotta and ceramic as well.
Provenance : Collection of a Gentleman
