Kerala State Coir Corporation Ltd has designed a new wall-hanging made in coir with the face of Bruce Lee, the martial arts master and actor. The artefact is created by an in-house designer PR Rajeevan, an employee of the corporation. The wall-hanging has a coir base, on which the water colour painting was done after a bleaching process. A spray gun painting on a stencil plate was used to create the portrait of Bruce Lee, he said.
The Bruce Lee wall-hanging is an attraction in the international pavilion of the ongoing ‘Coir Kerala 2016’, which will conclude on February 5. “We are targeting both the domestic and international market for the wall-hanging with the face of the Kung Fu master,” said KSCC Chairman Rajendra Prasad.
“It is expected to be popular in China as well as the US, where the Chinese-born actor lived,” KSCC Managing Director, GN Nair, said.
KSCC's wall-hanging based on the famous Mona Lisa painting had been a huge attraction at last year's ‘Coir Kerala' along with a portrait of musician Bob Marley.
Another KSCC wall hanging, which is drawing visitors this year, is a wall hanging with a portrait and message of former President APJ Abdul Kalam also designed by the corporation. The wall-hangings are produced under the corporation's Coircraft brand.
