Description

This wall plaque splits a single face down the middle to hold two of Kerala's most striking performance traditions side by side. One half is painted in the fierce red-and-orange makeup and towering crown associated with Theyyam, the ritual performance art of Northern Malabar; the other half carries the green face, white beard-like lips, and ornate headdress of Kathakali, Kerala's classical dance-drama.

The two halves meet exactly at the centre of the face, so the piece reads as one continuous portrait rather than two separate motifs stitched together — a deliberate visual statement about two art forms that share a home state but rarely share a stage.

At 15 inches in height and 12 inches in width, it works well as a striking single accent piece in a living room, study, or entryway. It comes with hooks fitted to the back, ready to hang.

For NRI households, this brings two of Kerala's most visually distinctive performance traditions into a single home abroad, and it makes a memorable gift for a housewarming or for anyone drawn to Kerala's performing arts.

Material: Pre-engineered Wood

Dimensions: Height 15 inches, Width 12 inches
