'Kali' Process Notes
From Wikipedia:
Kali-destroyer of evil forces. Divine Mother, Mother of the Universe. Her hair is shown disheveled, small fangs sometimes protrude out of her mouth, and her tongue is lolling. She is often shown naked or just wearing a skirt made of human arms and a garland of human heads.
I stumbled across the image of Kali and I was pretty Impressed with the level of creativity and imagination and god-ol-fashioned violence. She has four arms- 2 for peace, and 2 for war. My piece shows her war arms.
The Rolling Stones' logo, based on the out stuck tongue of Kali.
