Take a journey with curator, Chaya Chanrasekhar,

through an exhibition of splendid Indian sculptures

and paintings of female deities throughout the

centuries at the Art Gallery of New South Wales.

Whether erotic, fearsome or benign, whether Parvati,

Kali, Lakshmi or `Mother India' herself, Bharat Mata,

these images manifest the complexities of Hindu,

Buddhist and Jain worship of the female principle.
