Hybrid form, Mythology, Culture, Contemporary artAbstract
Indian hybrid mythology, its historical context, its cultural connotations, and the ways in which Indian artists depict anthropomorphism in their works of Indian art and culture. Through an analysis of the artists' histories, ideologies, and methods, our research reveals how they have balanced innovation with tradition in their works. It demonstrates how artists use cultural themes, mythology, and folklore as inspiration to depict the intricacies of identity in society. The dissertation explores the impact of Indian hybrid forms and how they subvert societal norms that balance modernity and heritage in our culture. The research provides a thorough understanding of the rich Indian form and its significance on the international form arena by examining the techniques and symbols utilized by for designers and delving deeply into difficulties. In general, this study advances knowledge about hybrid form, its variety in India, and its relevance in the contemporary art scene.
