Carved Parinirvana Buddha Sculpture
This Buddha sculpture is shown in
Parinirvana.
In Buddhism, Parinirvana is the final nirvana, usually within reach only upon
the death of the body of someone who has attained complete awakening or
bodhi. It is the ultimate goal of Buddhist practice and implies a
release from the cycle of deaths and rebirths as well as the dissolution of all
worldly physical and mental aggregates or skandhas (perception or
consciousness).
This
sculpture is entirely hand-crafted and painted in rural villages in Cambodia.
Every piece is truly unique!
About
Wood Lacquering & Gilding: The artisans begin this process by sizing the
wood, before applying colours made with natural pigments. The pieces can
be adorned with copper or gold leaf gilding. Pieces that are glossy are
sanded and polished in order to give them their glossy finish. Some pieces
may be lacquered, smoothed and then varnished.
