The Khadau, once worn by sages and saints, symbolizes simplicity, detachment, and spiritual grounding, embodying the meeting point of memory, ritual, and presence. Its rich textures and undulating grain patterns evoke the feel of timeworn footprints, silently speaking of journeys taken and the weight of accumulated wisdom. This work serves as both tribute and provocation—honoring the ascetic path while asking what roads we choose and what marks we leave behind. Through its tactile form and layered symbolism, it invites reflection on how the footsteps of the past guide us, and how our own journeys will shape the stories of tomorrow.
