Monkey sitting on roof: Dhokra by Kunal Rana

Dhokra maestro Kunal Rana in his artwork creatively fashions the presence of a monkey sitting on the roof of a hut. One of the most well-known interpretations of a monkey on a hut's roof is that it represents Lord Hanuman, a prominent deity in Hinduism. Hanuman is revered as a symbol of devotion, strength, and selfless service. In some Indian folklore and beliefs, monkeys are considered guardians and protectors of homes. They are believed to ward off evil spirits and bring good luck. Placing a monkey figurine on the roof of a hut is seen as a superstitious or symbolic act to protect the occupants from negative influences and to ensure the safety and well-being of the household. Dhokra art often incorporates elements of nature and traditional symbolism. The inclusion of a monkey on a hut's roof acts as an artistic choice, adding a unique and culturally significant touch to the artwork.
