Over the years Anju Dodiya has come to be regarded as one of India's leading female artists. For her first ever site-specific project, Throne of Frost, Dodiya draws on the fables and recorded history of the Lukshmi Villas Palace, situated in the former princely seat of Baroda, where Baroda's royal descendents continue to live even now. The palace, an architectural marvel, done in the Indo Saracenic style is used as a source that the artist draws upon to create two-sided works of varying scale and using embroidered tapestry, each becoming almost proportionate to an act of heroism.
