Title: Akshar (imperishable letterform) Pradakshina (rotation around the deity). “To show the intrinsic connection Devanagari and Tamil have with Brahmi, one of the oldest writing systems used in the Indian subcontinent, 3-D letterforms made of color-faceted paper pyramids display a different letterform depending upon the viewer’s orientation to the sculpture. Walking around the sculpture, the viewer sees PRA and KA in Devanagari, then KA and LA in Tamil. A in Devanagari is visible above when light is projected through the sculpture.”
