THEYYAM -  A series of watercolors  based on the art form called " Theyyam".

Theyyam is a famous ritual art form that originated in North Kerala. It encompasses dance, mime and music. It exalts the beliefs of the ancient tribes who gave a lot of importance to the worship of heroes and the spirits of their ancestors. The ceremonious dance is accompanied by the chorus of such musical instruments as Chenda, Elathalam, Kurumkuzal and Veekkuchenda. There are over 400 separate Theyyams, each with their own music, style and choreography.
