The Head Figure is inspired by the Bonda tribe of Odisha who live in the 32 villages of the Bonda Ghati in the Malkangiri district of Odisha. They call themselves ‘Remo’ which means people. The people of Bonda tribe have large highlighted facial features. The women do not grow hair and wear only selective jewels. They wear silver neck rings, earrings that drop from the ear helix and headbands made of tiny beads. They also wear many garlands of beads around their neck whose length can cover their entire upper body. The presentation of large facial features in the art of Odisha can also be seen in the deities at Jagannath temple in Puri.
