Walk into the foyer of the Bay area at the RMZ Ecospace in Bengaluru and your eyes will immediately be drawn to a solitary sculpture, whose sheer size dwarfs the entire space surrounding it. Standing close to 15-feet-tall (including the base), Devi is the most imposing and arresting of all of G Ravinder Reddy’s signature head sculptures. With golden skin, crimson lips, bulging eyes, a bun bedecked in jasmine buds, it is an incredible specimen of immaculate symmetry.
“Symmetry is fundamental,” said the 61-year-old. “That’s what makes the form stand out.”
