Raza Inspired Hide-Away Snail
This snail's shell is inspired by the famous Indian artist S.H. Raza.
From www.theheritagelab.in:
The most celebrated of Raza art series has been the ‘Bindu’. Derived from the Indian concept of “Shunya” – the abstract of nothingness and yet that which has the ability to add value to whatever it is affixed to.
Raza perceived the Bindu as the centre of all creation and existence, stating that “Bindu is a source of energy, source of life. Life begins here, attains infinity here”
The concentric circles challenge children's spatial ability.
The snail hides and comes out of the shell, making it a fun dynamic play activity.
