Description

Within traditional Cambodian beliefs, the cat is a symbol of good fortune. A cat is often carried around a new house during the house-warming ceremony or around the village to ask for rain at the end of the dry season. Cats are even used in the kings’ coronation ceremonies as they are believed to bring prosperity to the entire nation. This illustration is inspired by the famous Hindu myth “The Churning of the Sea of Milk” which in turn has inspired countless bas reliefs and temple bridge decorations all over Cambodia. Legend tells of spiritual beings known as Devas and Asuras extracting the nectar of immortality from the Sea of Milk by churning it with a giant serpent wrapped around a mountain. My illustration asks the question ­­— what if a giant cat was used instead?
