A photograph of workers at an outdoor clay-casting site lifting a large rounded clay mould out of a pit with chains and long wooden poles. Four men in lungis and shirts strain on the poles, one in a green shirt, one in a blue shirt and one in a grey shirt, while a man with a red headcloth sits near the pit. Smoke and fire burn in the background beside pots and a stool, under palm trees and a thatched shelter. No a person candidate is visible.

A photograph of an outdoor workshop where a large pale clay sculpture is being prepared, wrapped in wire mesh and suspended by chains from above. A man in a bright green t-shirt and checked lungi stands at left, holding a long metal rod against the sculpture. At right, another man in a blue shirt and checked lungi leans in with a rod. A third man in a white vest lies or crouches on top of the sculpture at the upper centre. The ground is red earth scattered with clay chunks, and a pipe lies near the base. The sculpture appears to be a rough, unfinished figure of a deity murti being formed on the ground.Making Of Sacred Arts UniversityOutdoor photo of workers at a dirt excavation site unearthing a large pale plaster-covered stone or clay form with three round holes on its face. Two men in the foreground crouch and dig with tools, one wearing a checked shirt and plaid lungi, the other a yellow plaid shirt. Two more men stand behind a horizontal metal pipe, one in a green sleeveless vest and lungi, the other in a blue checked cloth. Brown earth surrounds the scene, and the form appears to be a statue being exhumed or prepared for shipment in a workshop setting.Making Of Sacred Arts UniversitySeptember 16 20132013-09-16Making Of Sacred Arts UniversityMaking Of Sacred Arts UniversityMaking Of Sacred Arts UniversityMaking Of Sacred Arts UniversitySeptember 11 20162016-09-11Making Of Sacred Arts UniversityA photograph taken at night in a dirt-floored workspace where men are excavating a large pale white stone or plaster sculpture partly buried in sand. Two men in white shirts and lungi-style cloths kneel and dig, one using a shovel and the other a trowel, beside a large whitish head or torso-like form lying in the pit. Behind them a brick-lined pit or kiln structure stands, with other men in white dhotis and checked lungis standing in the background amid scattered bricks, rubble and sacks. No readable deity identity is clear from the visible sculpture, which is partly unfinished or buried. No a person candidate is visibly present in the scene.2013-09-16
