Cross-Cultural Exchange of Visual and Material Cultures: Case Studies from the North Indian Terracotta Figures
This article offers an investigation into sculptural artefacts from the early historic period. Most of the objects under study are small in size and are often found dismembered or in pieces. This is partly because of the fragility of the material—baked clay—but more often, because of the techniques of manufacture—whether owing to a weak armature (where used), incomplete baking or/and the pressing together of elements in the mould that has yielded to the passage of time and rough handling. The following analysis seeks to locate these fragments by contextualising them in the spaces/regions they were found in, as well as in the estimated time periods. This contextualisation is specifically attempted through some typologically categorised case studies pursued through the lens of ‘transculturality’ and ‘materiality’.
