Overview

Tabla Drip Bulge 01 – by Seema Lisa Pandya 2016 is a sculpture made from used tabla pudis (the skins of the Indian classical tabla drum) donated by tabla percussionists. Each round 'pudi' has been played for thousands of hours until the skin is no longer usable. As a former tabla student Seema experienced these sounds visually as a rhythmical “push-pull” “inhale-exhale” balance that is a fundamental building block of natural forms. She has woven these rhythmical instrument parts together to represent these polyrhythmic forms.” Tabla leather, India Ink, and Wood. 23″ x 23″ x 12″
