This striking gilt copper alloy sculpture, gilded with 24-karat gold, represents an animal-headed dakini associated with the wrathful deities encountered in the Bardo, the intermediate state described in Tibetan Buddhist tradition.

Depicted in a dynamic dancing posture, the figure embodies the fierce and transformative energies that arise between death and rebirth. The bird-like head, both elegant and intense, evokes heightened perception and the visionary dimension of the mind encountered in intermediate states.

The dakini is adorned with a garland of severed heads, symbolizing impermanence and the transcendence of ego. Her gestures convey ritual meaning, reinforcing her role within the symbolic and transformative landscape of tantric practice.
