Abhimanyu (from Mermaid Series Medium: Flowers, Leaves and Clay Finger work on Hand made paper. Jan 2005)
A valiant and vibrant character from the Indian epic Mahabharata, Abhimanyu is the son of Arjuna, the warrior-hero, and the nephew of Sree Krishna, the divine incarnation of Vishnu. The story goes that while Abhimanyu was in the womb of a pregnant Subhadra, the sister of Sree Krishna, he heard lessons on martial warfare from his uncle, and absorbed this knowledge instantly, enabling him to perform valorous feats on the battlefield years later, during the epic battle.
The Artist seeks to remind us all that the right education can never begin too early, and that lessons learnt at a very young age may pave the way for success in future life.
