Kumartuli in Calcutta Kolkata in West Bengal in India in Asia
In a rather overlooked district of this great world city is this area where the potters create these magnificent works of religious and spiritual art. The amazing diversity of sculptures made out of the mud of the Hooghly River is astonishing such as this carving of Durga riding on a lion. The creative art is made to be offered up to the pantheon of Hindu Gods. Spirituality and modern creativity in the streets of Asia
