The artist, Balan, has always blended styles from classic iconic Hindu statuary together. A term he coined to me as "Masala" taken after the combination of Indian spices in cooking. He came to me in 2015 with the idea to use India's wealth of stunning colored granites to create abstract modern Ganesha statues with them for the garden. When highly polished, Indian granites have an unbelievable sheen that showcases the awesome amount of energy and unusual colors held within the stones. Balan is an amazing artist who is always pushing the boundries of his art in new ways. By supporting Balan you are breathing life into the arts in Tamil Nadu and supporting Balan and his family.
"The artist, Balan, got inspiration for this sculpture when on a trip with me in 2013 to Bodhgaya, India when we went to see the Bodhi tree where the Buddha was enlightened. It is easy to take inspiration from a setting that is so peaceful as you can see from the picture I took of a monk meditating beneath the Bodhi tree.
The red multi colored granite is just perfect for this sculpture. Its unique veins and stunning array of colors give the piece an added sense of energy.
I love being a part of the entire process from concept to the final completion of the idea into a stunning sculpture!"

This modern portrayal of Ganesh is abundant with polished, smooth, curved lines. It lacks the typical details of Ganesh like jewelry and facial features. It lets the polished smooth surfaces of the stone do the speaking for the sculpture. The unpolished portions of the statue contrast beautifully with the bright polished sheen. Ganesh does not have any eyes which is perfect for Hindus who do not want to perform daily puja for the statue. Ganesh is perfectly acceptable to be in the garden as well.

Someone must be present to receive the statue. Depending on where you are located we will use either R&L Carriers, UPS Freight, Estes, DHX or Roadrunner Transport.
The freight company will use a lift gate to bring the sculpture to the ground and then use a pallet jack to move it anywhere on the same level. They will move it anywhere in your driveway or in your garage. They will not take it to your backyard or in the elevator to your apartment or up or down any steps. They will not be unpacking the statue and taking the crate away. Think of them as you would UPS or Fedex. They only deliver the statue. If you require a little extra service, (within reason) a tip to a delivery man usually works wonders!
For placing the statue our customers have either placed the statue themselves with help of a friend and a tool like a hand truck or a dolly. Or by contacting their landscaper who is used to moving large and heavy objects like rocks and trees into place. For much larger and heavier sculptures sometimes the customer needs a piece of heavy equipment for placing the statue like a crane or forklift.
